AS13030 — INIT7

Network type: hosting

AS13030 announces 54 IPv4 prefixes covering 117,760 addresses and 33 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

896 neighbours, fourteen years of dated netnames, and one reverse name that is off by one.

What it's used for

• A Swiss internet provider and transit network. 117,248 addresses across 54 IPv4 prefixes, 36 IPv6 prefixes, and 896 observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Every netname is CH-KUENZLER- with a date: 19961127, 20000119, 20020613, 20031107, 20050113, 20070119, 20080506 and 20100222.
• Seven of eighteen sampled addresses answered.
• 109.202.207.255 answers 109-202-207-254.init7.net, naming the address next to it.
• Other names include empty.init7.net, a customer's own domain at quantum.w0x.org, and one carrying the brand fiber7.

Interesting

• 896 neighbours puts this among the most densely connected networks in the corpus, and it is a peering position rather than a size one: the address count is ordinary for a national provider, while the adjacency count is what a network gets by showing up at every exchange it can reach.
• Eight dated netnames from 1996 to 2010 give the whole allocation history with no gaps, and every one carries a surname rather than the company name. The person who founded the registry membership is still the label on all of it.
• One address answers with its neighbour's name. A generated zone that is off by one somewhere in its arithmetic produces exactly this, and nothing catches it because nothing checks that a reverse name resolves back to where it came from.
• empty as a hostname is an operator marking unused space on purpose, which is more information than silence would give.
