About this network

A transit agency whose one published name is the map server.

What it's used for

• A suburban bus operator's network. 1,280 addresses across two IPv4 prefixes, with two observed BGP neighbours and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• 204.115.144.0/22 carries the netname PACENET, registered to PACE Suburban Bus Systems.
• 199.177.38.0/24 carries AIMS-PACEBUS-BLK, registered to Pace Suburban Bus Co, a different spelling of the same operator.
• One of six sampled addresses answered, as maps.pacebus.com.
• The AS name field describes the agency as a division of the Region Transportation Authority, with a word left unfinished.

Interesting

• The single published name is the most useful thing a bus agency puts on the internet: the service that draws where the buses are. Everything else in the range stays quiet, so the reverse DNS is an accurate short summary of what the public actually touches here.
• The two registrant spellings and the second netname's four-letter prefix show the blocks were filed years apart, most likely through different carriers, and nobody has been back to tidy them.
• Small public agencies running their own AS is more common than people expect. Once the fare system, the vehicle radios and the garages all need to reach the same data centre, having address space that survives changing carrier is worth the paperwork.
• Two upstreams keeps that data centre reachable when one carrier has a problem.
