Maybe. But a lot of people *have* used it, because I've seen it when
doing webauth logins e.g. in airports, train networks, etc. And by
definition, the people unwise enough to use it are also likely to be
the people unwise enough to return and fix things up in the
installations they did.
Yes, very unfortunate. But, I know of a lot of installs that have not. :)
Cisco wrote docs suggesting that people did this:
"""
Enter the IP address of the controller's virtual interface. You should
enter a fictitious, unassigned IP address, such as 1.1.1.1.
"""
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/2100/quick/guide/ctrl206q.html
(amongst others)
This was always terrible, very naughty advice. That sentence should
have read:
"""
You should enter an IP address from a range you control, such as
public IPs owned by your organisation or RFC 1918 space e.g. 10.1.1.1
"""
Bad cisco! Bad! No treats for you!
Yes, definitely a doc issue. Unfortunately, not fixed :(
