About this network

The company announcing this block is not the company that holds it.

What it's used for

• A regional provider's network. 4,096 addresses in a single IPv4 prefix, with three observed BGP neighbours and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• 64.186.192.0/20 carries the netname ESCONSULT-CL-20 and is registered to ES Consulting Inc., a different name from the one the AS is filed under.
• The AS handle is ACCNETWORKS.
• Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• Registry records and routing records answer different questions. One says who was granted the addresses; the other says who is putting them on the internet today. A gap between them is a merger, a rebrand, a holding company, or an arrangement between two firms that share an office, and the public record never says which.
• The netname reads as a contraction of the holder, a two-letter marker and the size of the block. That middle field is the interesting one: whoever wrote it was distinguishing this allocation from others they expected to hold, so the naming scheme was designed before it was needed.
• Three neighbours for a single /20 is a network that buys redundancy seriously, which suggests customers who notice when it goes down.
• Nothing answers a reverse lookup, so what the space is used for stays inside the company.
