About this network

A power utility's telecoms arm, named in the registry after the street it sits on.

What it's used for

• The telecommunications subsidiary of a Bavarian electricity utility. 48,384 addresses across 24 IPv4 prefixes, five IPv6 prefixes, and 102 observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• The large blocks are 62.204.160.0/19, 153.100.160.0/19, 193.23.64.0/19 and 212.118.192.0/19.
• 153.100.160.0/19 carries the netname INNOGY001, registered to a different energy group.
• The AS handle is LEWTELNET Oskar-von-Miller-Str. 1b.
• The registry lookup for 212.118.192.0/19 failed, so nothing here describes that block's record.
• Nine of eighteen sampled addresses returned names, split between ptr-62-204-168-0.static.lewtelnet-access.de and ptr-153-100-168-0.pool.lewtelnet-access.de.

Interesting

• Electricity utilities became telecoms operators by accident: they already owned rights of way, towers and ducts for the power grid, and fibre costs little more to pull once the trench exists. The 102 neighbours are the regional interconnections that follow from owning infrastructure rather than from selling internet access.
• The handle carries a street address, and the street is named after an electrical engineer famous for building power transmission. A utility's telecoms arm registered at that address is a small joke that nobody involved intended.
• The reverse names distinguish static from pool, so the zone states which addresses are assigned to a fixed customer and which are handed out dynamically. Mail systems and abuse tooling read exactly that distinction, which is why operators bother to encode it.
• INNOGY001 names an energy company folded into another, on a block now announced here. Utility mergers move networks the same way telecom mergers do, and the underscore-and-number naming suggests a block created from a template, expecting an 002 that may never have come.
