AS15063 — PWEH-ASN

AS15063 announces 2 IPv4 prefixes covering 1,024 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

The AS belongs to the division, the address space to the parent.

What it's used for

• A manufacturer's network. Two IPv4 /23 blocks announced from the United States, no IPv6, and one observed BGP neighbour.

Notable

• Both blocks are registered to the parent corporation, not to the division named in the holder record.
• One netname carries both names, parent first and division second; the other carries only the parent.
• The AS handle is PWEH-ASN, built from the division's initials plus two more letters, and it matches neither netname.
• One block sits in the legacy range that predates the current allocation system.
• Six addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• This record shows a corporate boundary from two sides at once. The AS registration names the operating business that people recognise; the address registrations name the holding company that owns it. Neither is wrong, and anything matching on one will miss the other.
• The netname that carries both names is the more useful of the two, because it is the only place in the record where parent and division appear together. The other block gives no hint that this division exists.
• A single upstream for a manufacturer of this size means the AS number covers one specific function rather than the whole company's connectivity.
• The legacy block is the older of the two and predates the corporate structure the netnames describe.
