About this network

An announced address total that is an odd number, which takes a single-address route to achieve.

What it's used for

• A virtual server provider. 55,295 addresses across 129 IPv4 prefixes plus seven IPv6 prefixes, with seven observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Blocks carry three different registrants: RouterHosting LLC under the netname ROUTERHOSTING, FranTech Solutions under PONYNET-12, PONYNET-15 and PONYNET-16, and CLOUDZY A I INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY L.L.C under AE-CLOUDZY-19910923.
• Seven of eighteen sampled addresses returned a name, all under static.cloudzy.com.
• Those names are the address written backwards with dots, as in 254.107.172.144.static.cloudzy.com.
• The 129 prefixes are mostly /21s, /22s and /23s scattered across unrelated ranges.

Interesting

• Address counts are sums of powers of two, so they come out even. This one does not, which means something in the inventory is a single address announced on its own. Providers do that to move one customer's address independently of the block it came from.
• Three company names on one AS, one of them registered in a different region entirely. Small hosting businesses are bought and resold, and the registry keeps every layer.
• Reverse names built from the address reversed with dots are the raw reverse-lookup form with a domain appended. It is the least effort that still produces a unique name for every address.
• Scattered small blocks rather than a few large ones is the signature of space acquired on the market rather than allocated in one piece.
