About this network

Every netname belongs to a company the registrant absorbed, and one host is named after a character in a novel.

What it's used for

• A regional ISP's network. 8,192 addresses across 10 IPv4 prefixes, with two observed BGP neighbours and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• Eight blocks carry the netname ZIANET, registered to SpinnNet.
• 67.22.184.0/22 carries SPINNNET-67-22-184-0-1023, registered to Southwest Wireless Networks.
• The lookup for 67.22.176.0/23 failed, so nothing is known about that record.
• Four of eighteen sampled addresses returned a name: three of the form 67-22-182-254.zianet.com, and one littlebrother.spinn.net.

Interesting

• The registrant name appears on every record and the absorbed brand appears in every label. The reverse zone agrees with the labels rather than the registrant, so customers still see the old name on their addresses years after the company behind it stopped existing.
• That one named host is a joke with a long memory, inverting a phrase about surveillance into something small and local. Somebody chose it by hand on a network where everything else is generated from the address.
• A netname ending in a count rather than an address is unusual: it names the block by how many addresses it holds. The same information, expressed the awkward way round.
• Two neighbours across ten announcements from two ranges is a small operator that has been buying its neighbours, which is how a regional ISP survives long enough to have this much history.
