About this network

A network that carries scheduling traffic for electricity markets, and says nothing at all about itself.

What it's used for

• A software provider's network serving energy markets. 8,192 addresses across two IPv4 prefixes, with two observed BGP neighbours and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• Both blocks carry the netname OATI-INET1, registered in capitals to OPEN ACCESS TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC.
• The two /20s come from unrelated ranges, one from 104.207 and one from 174.141.
• Six addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• One netname on both blocks, ending in a number that never reached two, is a company that registered its space once, planned for growth and did not need it. The label is a promise the network never had to keep.
• Ranges beginning 104 and 174 were both issued late, long after the early allocations that most networks of this age hold. An organisation with two late /20s and nothing older grew up after address space stopped being easy to get.
• Nothing answers a reverse lookup. The parties that connect here are utilities and market operators who already know the addresses; publishing names would only help everyone else.
• Two neighbours for infrastructure that coordinates power scheduling is thin at first glance, until you notice that traffic of this kind travels over private connections rather than the public internet, which is where the redundancy actually lives.
