AS12096 announces 2 IPv4 prefixes covering 512 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

A small telephone company's network, registered under a more ambitious name.

What it's used for

• Telephone company connectivity. 512 addresses in two /24s with a single observed BGP neighbour and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• The holder is AMP Telephones, but both blocks carry the netname AMP-GLOBAL-COMMUNICATIONS-NYC and are registered to AMP Networks.
• The two prefixes, 207.34.32.0/24 and 207.34.40.0/24, are eight /24s apart in the same range.
• One neighbour for the whole operation.

Interesting

• Three names for one business, and they get progressively larger: Telephones, then Networks, then Global Communications. That sequence is the naming history of the late 1990s telecommunications industry in miniature, when every operator was repositioning from the thing it actually sold toward the thing the market was paying for.
• What is announced is 512 addresses through a single provider. The registry preserves the ambition and the routing table records the result, and the gap between the two is the most honest thing in the record.
