AS12902 announces 9 IPv4 prefixes covering 14,848 addresses and 2 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

Four company names in nine blocks, each acquisition leaving its label behind.

What it's used for

• A Dutch managed IT and hosting provider. 14,848 addresses across nine IPv4 prefixes, two IPv6 prefixes, and 131 observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Five blocks are dated NL-EKCO- netnames: 20001204, 20091007, 20130813, 20140121 and 20140313.
• The remaining blocks are KNS-Net-EKCO, KNS-Net-AMS2, QuatroLogic-Net-AMS and NL-EUROSYSTEMS-20170706.
• KNS-Net-EKCO is registered to a Quatrologic contact; QuatroLogic-Net-AMS is registered to a KNS contact.
• The AS handle is LUNA, matching none of those names.
• Eighteen addresses were sampled and none returned a name.

Interesting

• The two crossed netnames are the clearest acquisition evidence in this range: a block labelled for one company is held by a contact at the other, and the reverse is also true. Somebody renamed the blocks while somebody else moved the contacts, and the two operations passed each other going opposite directions.
• The AS handle still says LUNA, a name that appears nowhere else in the record. Handles are set once and rarely revisited, so the AS keeps announcing itself under a company identity that the address blocks have all moved past.
• The dated netnames cluster: one in 2000, then nothing for nine years, then three in eighteen months across 2013 and 2014. That is the signature of a provider that grew slowly and then bought aggressively, and the 185. blocks confirm it since that range was only allocated to European operators after the regional registry reached its final IPv4 reserves.
