About this network

The AS carries one company's name and most of its addresses carry another's.

What it's used for

• An enterprise software company's network. 1,792 addresses across three IPv4 prefixes, with one observed BGP neighbour and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

• 208.92.248.0/22 carries the netname LAWSON-SOFTWARE and is registered to that company.
• The other two blocks share the netname INFOR-NET-159-172 and are registered to Infor (US), LLC.
• Nine addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
• The AS first appeared in routing on 2000-08-18.

Interesting

• An acquisition caught partway through the paperwork. The AS record and one block still name the company that was bought; the other two blocks have been transferred to the buyer's name. Nothing breaks by leaving it half done, so it stays half done.
• The two transferred blocks share a netname built from the range they came out of, which is what a large acquirer does when it absorbs somebody else's address space: it renames by location in the address plan rather than by what the addresses do.
• One upstream for a company running other businesses' finance and supply chain systems is thin on its own, though software of this kind is increasingly delivered from somebody else's cloud rather than from here.
• Nothing published in reverse DNS across all three blocks.
