About this network

A company whose netname is its own name translated into Finnish, next to a block called BITFOAM.

What it's used for

• Connectivity in Finland. 4,352 addresses in two IPv4 prefixes, two IPv6 prefixes, and one observed BGP neighbour.

Notable

• 212.16.96.0/20 is netname FI-RUNKOVERKOT-990813; runkoverkot is Finnish for backbone networks, which is the company's name in English.
• 91.207.79.0/24 is FI-BITFOAM-20231002, registered to Clausal Computing Oy — a different company entirely.
• The IPv6 announcements are 2a00:1c30::/32 and 2a13:5300::/29.
• The AS handle is a street address: BBNWKSCORE Tekniikantie 12.
• Six sampled addresses were queried and none returned a name.

Interesting

• The same organisation is called Backbone Networks Europe on the holder line, BBNWKSCORE in the AS handle, and RUNKOVERKOT in the netname. Three languages' worth of the same idea, all of them official, none of them cross-referenced by anything.
• Tekniikantie runs through the technology campus in Espoo, and this is the second network in this stretch of the number range registered to that few square kilometres. Address blocks cluster around universities because that is where the first connections were.
• A 2023 netname on a /24 held by another company, alongside a 1999 /20 and a recent IPv6 /29, is a small network assembled out of whatever was available in three different decades.
