AS13705 — COLQUITT-CONNECT-01

AS13705 announces 1 IPv4 prefixes covering 512 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

A city holds the AS number, but the address block is registered to a commercial provider whose registrant field names two companies at once.

What it's used for

• A municipal broadband network. 512 addresses in the single IPv4 prefix 69.51.28.0/23, one observed BGP neighbour, and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• The AS handle is COLQUITT-CONNECT-01, naming the city's own service.
• The block is netname HIGHSPEEDWEB and is registered to a commercial operator, not to the city.
• That registrant field holds two company names separated by a slash.
• It also spells out the words for a network operations centre rather than abbreviating them.
• Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• A city with its own AS number and a provider's address space is the standard shape of municipal broadband. The town owns the fibre and the brand, and buys the parts it has no reason to run itself, which is where the registry and the routing stop agreeing.
• Two company names in one registrant field records a merger that the registry absorbed by concatenation rather than by choosing. Both names still answer to the same contact.
• One upstream for a city's public network is a single point of failure that a subscriber would notice and a budget probably explains.
