AS13200 announces 2 IPv4 prefixes covering 512 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

Two /24s from unrelated ranges, one netname, one upstream.

What it's used for

• The corporate network of a Portuguese bank. 512 addresses across two IPv4 prefixes, one observed BGP neighbour, and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• The prefixes are 194.153.132.0/24 and 195.85.221.0/24, both netname BANCOBPI.
• Both list the bank and a Banco BPI Abuse Team contact.
• One observed BGP neighbour.
• Six addresses were sampled and none returned a name.

Interesting

• The same netname on two blocks from different ranges means the label describes the holder, not the allocation. That is the opposite of the dated country-prefixed convention that dominates this range, where each netname is unique to the block it names.
• Other blocks beginning 194.153. appear elsewhere in this range under unrelated holders in other countries. That range was carved up long ago into small assignments handed to whoever asked, so neighbouring addresses have nothing to do with each other. Any assumption that adjacency implies relatedness fails here.
• A named abuse team rather than a generic role object is a bank staffing the contact properly, which matters because that address is where takedown and fraud reports arrive.
• Two /24s and one upstream is a small, conservative public footprint for an institution of this size.
