About this network

An Italian wireless provider whose netname contains its own AS number.

What it's used for

• Local internet access. 256 addresses in one /24 with a single observed BGP neighbour and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• The netname is WisponeAS123401951371590: company name, AS number, and the network address, joined by underscores.
• The AS handle is TZM-NET, which matches neither the company nor the netname.
• First seen in routing data in October 2001.

Interesting

• That netname is the most self-describing record in this whole range. Everything needed to find the network is inside the label — who runs it, what number they route it under, and which addresses it covers. Nobody requires this, and almost nobody does it.
• WISP is the term for a provider that reaches its customers over radio rather than cable, which in Italy means the valleys and hill towns where digging a trench costs more than the customers are worth. A /24 and one upstream is the whole footprint, and the antenna on the church tower is the expensive part.
