AS13157 — GOPAS-AS Schellerdamm 16

AS13157 announces 4 IPv4 prefixes covering 9,984 addresses and 1 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

One holder, three netname conventions, and eighteen years between the first and the last.

What it's used for

• A business connectivity and hosting provider in Germany. 9,984 addresses across four IPv4 prefixes, one IPv6 prefix, and 21 observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Netnames are DE-GOPAS, DE-GOPAS-20000515 and DE-GOPAS-20180131 on the holder's own blocks.
• 195.248.136.0/23 is registered as EXIS-DE to VIPION-NOC, a different party entirely.
• The AS handle is GOPAS-AS Schellerdamm 16, with a street address appended.
• The IPv6 allocation is a /29. Twelve addresses were sampled and none returned a name.

Interesting

• The three netnames are the same organisation filling the same field in three different decades. The undated one came first, before the convention existed; the others follow it. Reading them in order gives the registry's own house style as it changed, not anything about the network.
• The block registered to another party is announced here regardless. That is either leased space or a customer who kept its own registration, and it is the case that makes announcement and registration worth checking separately.
• 21 neighbours against 10,000 addresses inverts the subscriber-network shape. This provider peers far more widely than its address count would suggest, which is what a business-focused operator sells: paths, not space.
• A /29 of IPv6 is a great deal of address space held by a network with four small IPv4 blocks.
