About this network

TELKOMSAT-AP is PT Telkom Satelit Indonesia, the satellite subsidiary of state-owned PT Telkom Indonesia. Telkomsat operates the Telkom satellite fleet and sells transponder capacity, VSAT service and satellite-backed internet across the archipelago.

What it's used for

Addressing for satellite-delivered connectivity. The AS announces 9 IPv4 prefixes totalling 2,304 addresses, all /24s scattered across 203.99.96.0–203.99.127.0, and no IPv6. Every sampled PTR is first-party and sequential — 203-99-104-5.telkomsat.co.id, 203-99-127-133.telkomsat.co.id and so on — the generic template an operator stamps across space it assigns to service endpoints. Telkomsat's VSAT customers are public facilities in frontier districts, enterprises outside fibre coverage, ATM and kiosk networks, maritime users, and 4G backhaul in remote areas, so the addresses behind those PTRs are terminals and gateways, not a consumer broadband pool.

Notable

This is carrier-assigned business and public-sector space, and the small, tidy footprint is why. 2,304 addresses across nine /24s with 2 observed BGP neighbours is not a transit network — a wholesale carrier peers with hundreds of ASes — and it is far too small to be the eyeball network of a country of 280 million. Telkom Indonesia's consumer subscribers live in its other ASes; this one carries the satellite arm's own service addressing.

Interesting

Satellite space geolocates badly. A Telkomsat address terminates wherever the VSAT dish is — Papua, a ship, a remote ATM — even though the routing and the teleport sit in Java.
