AS14136 — PCCC

AS14136 announces 4 IPv4 prefixes covering 1,024 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

Four blocks, four providers, four completely different ways of writing down the same customer.

What it's used for

• A technology reseller's network. 1,024 addresses across four IPv4 prefixes, with six observed BGP neighbours and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• 8.20.255.0/24 carries LVLT-ORG-8-8 and is registered to Level 3 Parent, LLC, not to the company using it.
• 64.74.112.0/24 carries INAP-PCCON-12-PCCON-64-74-112-0, which names the provider, a customer code twice, and the block itself.
• 74.201.97.0/24 carries INAP-BSN-PCCON-74-201-97-0 and is registered to the company under its legal name plus its trading name.
• 65.199.155.0/24 carries the two-letter netname VZ.
• Twelve addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• Every one of these four records was written by a different provider's provisioning system, and none of them agree on anything: what to call the customer, whether to include the address, whether to record the customer as the holder at all. Sourcing connectivity from four carriers means being described four ways in the registry.
• The netname repeating the customer code before spelling out the block is what happens when a template concatenates fields without checking whether the earlier one already said it.
• Six upstreams for a thousand addresses is a lot of redundancy, which fits a business that sells other people their infrastructure and cannot be seen to lose its own.
