About this network

A Dutch access provider whose reverse DNS labels every address with the technology behind it.

What it's used for

• Residential and business access. 171,264 addresses across fourteen IPv4 prefixes, two IPv6 blocks (2001:9e0::/29 and 2a05:b2c2::/31), and 133 observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Reverse DNS under solcon.nl states the access technology per address. A sample of fourteen names turns up four different stems: dsl-, ftth-, colo- and customer-.
• Four of the announced blocks are registered to KPN, not Solcon — netnames NL-WAPI-20030731, NL-WAPI-20120828, NL-WAPI-20100607 and NL-KPN-BBT-20150316.
• Solcon's own netnames carry their allocation dates, and the format changes partway: NL-SOLCON-990312 gives the year two digits, everything from 2002 onward gives it four.

Interesting

• The PTR names zero-pad each octet to three digits, so addresses sort correctly as text: dsl-212-045-040-000. One name in the sample skips the padding — dsl-212-84-151-254 — which is what a second generator, or a hand edit, leaves behind.
• Carrying KPN-registered space inside its own AS is the shape of Dutch wholesale access. The incumbent's copper and fibre reach the house, another provider sells the service over it, and the address record follows the line rather than the brand on the invoice.
