AS14475 — D4-NETW

AS14475 announces 2 IPv4 prefixes covering 768 addresses and 3 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

The registrant name carries a city on the end, so the company is filed twice under two slightly different identities.

What it's used for

• A regional provider's network. 768 IPv4 addresses across two prefixes, three IPv6 prefixes, and three observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• 66.85.94.0/23 carries D4-NET, registered to the company's plain legal name.
• 66.85.92.0/24 carries D4-NETWORKS-DALLAS, registered to D4 Networks L.L.C. - Dallas.
• The three IPv6 announcements are 2602:f38e:1::/48, 2602:f38e:2::/48 and 2602:f38e:4::/48.
• Six addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• Appending a location to the registrant, rather than to the netname alone, creates a second organisation in the registry that is not a second organisation in the world. Anyone matching address space to companies by exact name gets two, and anyone matching loosely risks merging companies that really are distinct.
• The IPv6 numbers skip one. Three end-site blocks numbered one, two and four means the third was either used and withdrawn, or reserved for a site that never opened. Both are common; neither is recorded anywhere a stranger can see.
• A provider holding IPv6 and announcing three separate end-site blocks has thought about per-site numbering, which puts it ahead of most networks its size in this range.
• Three upstreams for 768 addresses is generous, and the right trade for a business whose product is other people staying online.
