About this network

The same company name listed twice in one field, differing only in punctuation.

What it's used for

• An internet provider's network. Four IPv4 blocks announced from the United States, no IPv6, and nine observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Two blocks carry a registrant field holding the holder's name twice over, once with a comma and a trailing period and once without either.
• A third block is registered to a different company altogether, Online Spam Solutions LLC, under the netname OSS-BLK-01.
• The fourth carries the netname 2PIFI-NET01-24-124, which begins with a digit and ends in two separate numbers.
• Two of twelve sampled addresses answered, both in the form 64-7-107-254.urbancom.net.
• The routing history begins in 2003.

Interesting

• The duplicated registrant is worth more than it looks. Two records that a person would read as one company are two distinct entries to anything comparing strings, so the deduplication that should have collapsed them never ran, and the field preserves both attempts at spelling the name.
• Netnames beginning with a digit are unusual, and the trailing pair of numbers on that block looks like a size and a counter rather than anything about the network.
• Nine upstreams against this much address space is a well connected regional operator, and the reverse names that do answer are address-derived rather than customer-derived, so they identify the block and nothing about who is on it.
