AS11346 announces 1 IPv4 prefixes covering 1,024 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.
About this network
LAS-NIDR is held by PIMCO — Pacific Investment Management Company, the Newport Beach, California fixed-income asset manager. The handle is a good illustration of why handles cannot be trusted on their own: LAS-NIDR names nobody, resembles no known organisation, and would send a naive reader looking at Las Vegas or at some acronym for a research directorate. It is almost certainly an internal department or site code. The registry data is what identifies the holder, and it says PIMCO.
What it's used for
PIMCO's own internet edge. RIS sees 4 IPv4 prefixes, 1,024 addresses, no IPv6, and 2 observed neighbours — four contiguous /24s from 144.77.136.0 through 144.77.139.0, every one of them registered in ARIN to PIMCO under the handle PIMCO. Holder, registrant and announcer are the same firm, with no third-party space, no cross-registry blocks and nothing announced on anyone else's behalf.
Notable
Two observed neighbours against a thousand addresses is a dual-homed enterprise stub. That is the whole reason a firm like this takes an AS number at all: portable address space and two independent transit paths, so a carrier outage does not cut the perimeter and no renumbering is ever forced. A network that sold connectivity or hosting at this address size would show peers in the tens or hundreds. This one shows two, and sells nothing.
Interesting
None of the eight addresses we sampled returned a PTR. That is a sample and not a survey, and it is not evidence of a policy — but the routing picture is complete without it. What sits behind these four /24s is an asset manager's public face: VPN concentrators, mail gateways, market-data and counterparty integration endpoints. The trading and portfolio systems that matter are on private addressing and private circuits, and never appear in the global table at all.
