About this network

A six-digit netname date that means year and month, next to others meaning year, month and day.

What it's used for

• A German regional internet provider. 11,264 addresses across three IPv4 prefixes, two IPv6 prefixes, and 109 observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Netnames are DE-BADENIT-200302 and DE-BADENIT-20180329.
• A third block carries LIFR, registered to Northrop Grumman Litef GmbH.
• The AS handle is FREINET Freiburg, Germany, naming a brand that does not match the holder's name.
• Nine addresses were sampled and none returned a name.

Interesting

• 200302 is six digits, like the 990315 form seen elsewhere in this range, but it cannot mean the same thing: read as year, month and day it would be an impossible date. It is a year and a month, with no day at all. So six-digit netname dates are not one convention but two, and telling them apart requires reading the value rather than counting the characters.
• The handle carries a brand the holder no longer trades under, plus a city. AS handles are set once and rarely revisited, so they preserve the name a network launched with.
• An engineering company's own block routed by a municipal provider is the same pattern as any small German utility ISP: the space belongs to the customer, the path belongs to the town.
