About this network

Nineteen neighbours for five hundred and twelve addresses, the densest peering in this range.

What it's used for

• A hosting company's network. Two IPv4 /24 prefixes announced from the United States, no IPv6, and nineteen observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Nineteen neighbours is more than most networks in this range have, and this one is among the smallest, so it has roughly one peering relationship for every twenty-seven addresses.
• The two netnames use different conventions: one is the company's initials with a block counter, the other spells the company name and appends the address and prefix length.
• Both blocks are registered to the holder, which makes the two formats a matter of when each was written rather than by whom.
• Six addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
• The two blocks sit in unrelated parts of the address space.

Interesting

• That neighbour count is the whole story. A network peering this widely on this little space is present at exchange points, where peering is cheap and a small operator can pick up dozens of sessions without buying transit from any of them.
• The economics work in the other direction from most hosting: instead of paying for bandwidth, the network trades traffic directly and pays for the ports.
• Nothing answering in reverse on a hosting network is unusual. Customers on leased space normally ask for names, which suggests these blocks now carry infrastructure rather than tenants.
