About this network

The netnames are not names at all. Each one is the address range written out as a pair of endpoints.

What it's used for

• A telephone cooperative's broadband network serving a coastal town. 18,432 addresses across five IPv4 prefixes plus one IPv6 prefix, 2800:2b0::/32, with four observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Four blocks carry netnames of the form 179.51.80.0 - 179.51.95.255 and 170.78.200.0 - 170.78.203.255, registered to Cooperativa Telefónica Pinamar Ltda.
• The registrant string carries an accent that the AS holder record does not.
• The lookup for 201.219.64.0/19 failed, so nothing is known about that record.
• Two of fifteen sampled addresses returned a name: pinamar-201-219-87-254.users.telpin.com.ar and pinamar-138-219-6-254.users.telpin.com.ar.

Interesting

• Writing the range as a start and end address is the regional registry's own convention rather than a choice by the operator. It carries no information the record does not already have, and it makes the netname field useless for grouping.
• The same organisation appears twice with and without its accent, in two different systems. Anything matching operators by name across sources has to fold accents first or it will count this cooperative twice.
• The reverse names put the town in front, then the address, then a users subdomain under a trading name unrelated to the cooperative's legal name. Three identities for one network in one hostname.
• Telephone cooperatives in Argentina were built where the national carrier would not go, and the town name in every hostname is a reminder of who the network was actually for.
