AS13524 — ARROW-ELECTRONICS

AS13524 announces 11 IPv4 prefixes covering 4,352 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

Eleven blocks in five naming styles, and the one address that answered is an electronic data interchange host.

What it's used for

• An electronics distributor's network. 4,352 addresses across eleven IPv4 prefixes, twelve observed BGP neighbours, and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• Five blocks are netname ARROWE, one is ARROW, three carry a UU- provider prefix, one is GTT-ARROW, and one is just the address written out.
• Every block is registered to the same company under the same spelling.
• One sampled address answers as naedi.arrow.com.
• Eighteen addresses were queried and one answered.

Interesting

• Electronic data interchange is how distributors have exchanged orders, invoices and shipping notices since long before the web, over fixed connections with fixed addresses at both ends. A host named for the regional instance of it is the oldest working part of the network, and the reason a company like this needs its own routable space at all.
• Twelve upstreams for a company with no IPv6 and fewer than five thousand addresses is a distribution business treating reachability the way it treats a warehouse: many doors, all of them expected to open.
• ARROWE with a trailing letter is the company name plus the first letter of the second word, squeezed to fit a field. Once created it propagated to five blocks, because the easiest netname to use is the one already there.
