I know that when I worked at the local John Deere factory, the entire factory 
was on a 10.0.0.0/8 on the LAN.  I'd be horrified to be forced to redo all of 
that as IPv6.  That entire factory's public traffic went through a single IP 
address.  We did have an internal employee BYOD WiFi VLAN that went through 
that block also that had its own seperate public IP address.

Sadly, I've forgotten most of what I knew since it's been eight years since I 
last had to work with that setup.
