About this network

Three names for one operator: the company, a three-letter netname, and a hosting brand in the rDNS.

What it's used for

• A provider's network in Canada. 2,304 addresses across two IPv4 prefixes plus 2604:4280::/32 of IPv6, with one observed BGP neighbour.

Notable

• 206.220.192.0/21 carries the netname VOINETWP1 and 206.126.109.0/24 carries TNN, both registered to the same company.
• Of six addresses queried for reverse DNS, one answered, with the name client190.patternhosting.com.
• The AS first appeared in routing on 2000-08-18.

Interesting

• Three unrelated strings identify the same operator here, and none of them lead to the others. The netname on one block is the company squashed into a single token, the netname on the other is three letters that expand to nothing on their own, and the only published hostname belongs to a brand that appears nowhere in the registry.
• That last name is a template: the word for customer followed by the final part of the address. A generated zone like this covers every address whether or not anyone is using it, so a single answer out of six sampled means the zone was configured block by block rather than all at once.
• A full /32 of IPv6 alongside two modest IPv4 blocks is the usual modern split, and one upstream means all of it depends on a single relationship.
