AS14499 — ALORICA
AS14499 announces 7 IPv4 prefixes covering 132,864 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.
About this network
Forty prefixes, one netname, and it names a company that is not the registrant.
What it's used for
- A customer-service company's network. 133,376 addresses across 40 IPv4 prefixes, with four observed BGP neighbours and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
- Every block sampled carries the same netname, NCOGROUP-FTW, and the same registrant, ALORICA INC, with a second contact listed as NWData.
- 170.8.0.0/16 is announced whole, while the 142.192 range arrives as more than thirty separate pieces ranging from /18 down to /23.
- Eighteen addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- The netname belongs to a business the registrant field no longer mentions, with a site code appended. Acquisitions rewrite the registrant, which is one field per block; the netname is the part nobody goes back for, so it keeps naming the company that first asked for the space.
- Announcing one contiguous range as thirty-odd pieces, all under a single netname and single holder, is deaggregation without a registry reason. The split has to come from how the network is built rather than how the addresses were allocated: separate sites, separate circuits, each advertising only its own slice.
- A network of 133,376 addresses with four neighbours and nothing answering a reverse lookup faces entirely inward. Call-centre floors need addresses to reach out from, not names to be reached by.
