AS11307 — 6750REI
AS11307 announces 2 IPv4 prefixes covering 768 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.
About this network
6750REI belongs to Recreational Equipment, Inc. — REI, the member-owned outdoor-gear co-operative headquartered in Washington State. The odd handle is a good example of the rule that ASN handles name whatever the requester typed: the leading digits look like an internal or street identifier rather than anything meaningful about the network.
What it's used for
A retailer's corporate edge. RIS sees 3 IPv4 prefixes, 768 addresses, no IPv6 and 2 observed neighbours — three consecutive /24s out of 204.89.16.0, 204.89.17.0 and 204.89.19.0, announced through a pair of upstreams. All three are registered to Recreational Equipment Inc. under the netname REI-NET, so the routed space is entirely first-party: registrant and origin agree, with no third-party or multi-RIR inventory anywhere.
Notable
Two neighbours against 768 addresses is the signature of an enterprise that is multi-homed for resilience, not a network in the connectivity business. A carrier of any kind peers with dozens to thousands of ASes; REI peers with two, which is what a company buys when it wants its own portable address space to keep working if one provider goes down.
Retailers of REI's size run far more internet-facing capacity than three /24s, but the visible parts — the storefront, the digital co-op membership systems, the CDN edges — live on other people's infrastructure. What stays on the company's own ASN is the plumbing that has to carry a stable, company-owned IP address: site-to-site VPN endpoints for stores and distribution centres, corporate mail and remote access, and B2B links to payment and logistics partners that allowlist by source address. The small footprint is the point, not a sign of decline.
