About this network

IDMS101 is InfraDMS, an infrastructure-as-a-service provider based in Columbia, Maryland. RIS sees a compact hosting network: 2 IPv4 prefixes, 3,072 addresses, no IPv6, and just 1 observed neighbour.

What it's used for

Hosted server infrastructure. InfraDMS sells bare-metal servers, private-node and cloud virtual servers, private cloud, colocation, backup, cloud storage and virtual desktop services — the space in this AS is where those workloads live. The routing agrees: 74.112.200.0/21 and 198.74.228.0/22 are both registered to InfraDMS itself (netnames IDMS-2 and IDMS-1), and the sampled reverse DNS returns 74-112-200-5.infradms.com — the templated per-address naming that hosting providers apply across a whole block. Server space wearing its operator's own rDNS, announced by its own registrant.

Notable

A single observed neighbour is the most informative number on the card. This network has one upstream and effectively no peering, which places it firmly at the leaf of the routing graph: it is a consumer of transit, not a provider of it. That rules out any transit or carrier reading despite the "infrastructure" branding, and it is a useful reminder that neighbour count, not address count, is what separates a wholesale role from a customer role.

Interesting

Both prefixes are registered to the holder and both sit in ARIN space, so there is none of the scattered multi-registrant, multi-RIR shape that marks leased or brokered address space. What you have is the ordinary silhouette of a regional managed-hosting shop: two contiguous blocks, a few thousand addresses, one upstream, and a datacentre's worth of customer servers behind it. The IPv6 absence is worth flagging as a gap for a provider that sells cloud and colocation in 2020s.
