About this network

EASTAR-TECHNOLOGY-AP is held by Towngas Telecommunications Fixed Network Limited (TGT), the carrier-neutral fixed-line and data-centre arm of The Hong Kong and China Gas Company. TGT famously threaded fibre through the town-gas pipe network, and today runs both a fixed network and a set of Hong Kong data centres.

What it's used for

Data-centre and enterprise connectivity. The AS announces 50 IPv4 prefixes totalling roughly 32,800 addresses, built from two anchor blocks (113.212.192.0/18 and 61.4.0.0/18) heavily deaggregated down to /22s, /23s and /24s, with no IPv6 announced. The sampled reverse DNS is entirely first-party and splits cleanly along the two businesses: 113-212-236-5.static.towngastelecom.com on the carrier side, and a long run of 61-4-x-x-dynamic.hdcdatacentre.com under TGT's own Hong Kong data-centre domain. Both zones are TGT's, so this is space the operator delegates to its own customers rather than space it has leased away.

Notable

Treat this as hosted and enterprise space, not an eyeball pool. The -dynamic label names the assignment mechanism, not a consumer product: TGT sells to carriers, cloud providers and network-intensive enterprises, and has no residential broadband franchise. The routing agrees that it is not a wholesale carrier either — 50 prefixes against just 1 observed BGP neighbour is a heavily deaggregated customer-facing network with a single visible upstream, nothing like the hundreds of peers a transit provider carries.

Interesting

Fifty prefixes from two /18s is unusually aggressive deaggregation, typical of a data-centre operator that wants each customer block independently steerable.
