AS11054 — LIVEPERSON

Network type: hosting

AS11054 announces 5 IPv4 prefixes covering 4,608 addresses and 6 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

LIVEPERSON is LivePerson, Inc., the US-listed conversational-commerce and customer-engagement software company. This is a SaaS platform's own network: 37 IPv4 prefixes (about 7,900 addresses), 32 IPv6 prefixes, and eight observed BGP neighbours, spread across three RIR regions.

What it's used for

LivePerson sells hosted chat, messaging and conversational-AI services that run inside its customers' websites and apps, so the traffic on this AS is the platform serving those embedded widgets and APIs to end users worldwide. The reverse DNS matches: a sampled address resolves to lo.intent.liveperson.net, a platform hostname, and another to forums.kasamba.com — Kasamba being the expert-advice marketplace LivePerson has long operated. This is production application infrastructure, not office connectivity and not resold hosting.

Notable

The prefix registrants are the interesting part. The space spans ARIN (LIVEPERSON, LIVEPERSON-NET), RIPE (LP-NET, EU-LIVEPERSON-2012…) and APNIC (LNB-AP) — multiple registries and several different handles, which is superficially the shape that flags an address-leasing or proxy operation. Here it is nothing of the kind: every handle is a LivePerson entity, and the reverse DNS is first-party. A genuine multinational SaaS company that needs presence in the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific ends up holding space from all three registries, and that is precisely what this looks like.

Interesting

Thirty-two IPv6 prefixes against 37 IPv4 ones is an unusually even split, and points to a platform that has taken dual-stack seriously — the v6 announcements are mostly /47s and /48s from a single 2a03:6400::/32, i.e. per-site or per-region deployments rather than one global aggregate.
