What type of network configuration is this? I connected to a public wifi recently and was curious on how it was configured. After acquiring my IP, the netmask was set to 255.0.0.0 and I was given an IP with 10.x.x.x, with x being anywhere from 0-254. So for example I had 10.178.54.12. The gateway was 10.128.128.128. The mac address manufacturer was Meraki, so presumably it was a Cisco Meraki. I'm not familiar with them, but was curious on why it was handing out weird ip ranges. The only thing I could think of is it's a security measure to isolate clients from each other, or is there another reason?
It was also running a captive portal of sorts that only seemed half functional. It would redirect HTTP requests to the agreement, but not HTTPS requests.
Anyone know what the hell was going on with this thing?
