About this network

One Ukrainian /22 whose only answering address is called webmaster.

What it's used for

• Internet access. 1,024 addresses in a single /22, one observed BGP neighbour, and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• The whole inventory is 194.42.192.0/22, under the netname TCOM — four letters, no country prefix and no date.
• One sampled address answers webmaster.uz.ua.

Interesting

• TCOM predates the convention almost every other block in this range follows. Netnames became COUNTRY-COMPANY-DATE because registries needed them to be unique and sortable; the ones that are just a contraction of the company name were registered before anybody needed to sort them.
• uz.ua is the regional domain for Uzhhorod, in the far west of Ukraine, so the network is named for a city rather than a company in the only place a user would see it.
• Naming a machine webmaster puts a job title where a hostname belongs. It comes from the era when one box was the web server, the mail server and the thing the webmaster logged into, and the name that stuck was the person's rather than the machine's function.
