I read that in DNS there are reasons (reverse DN lookup?) that limit 
subnetting to byte boundary. Then a different paragraph said, nowadays 
subnetting is not limited to byte boundary. Now, are there limitations? I 
know, ISPs offer eg 16 IP-addresses, so subnetting below byte boundary is 
actual practice.
