About this network

Four company names, three island carriers, and a netname used as its own registrant.

What it's used for

• A Caribbean cable operator. Forty IPv4 prefixes and one IPv6 /28 announced from Saint Lucia, thirty-three thousand addresses, across two observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• One long netname combining two company names, the word international and a three letter country code appears in the registrant field as well, so the same string identifies both the block and its owner.
• Several blocks are registered to a carrier from a different island, under a netname of three letters and a counter.
• Others carry an acquired company's name with the same country code, and one uses a carrier abbreviation followed by an address that ends in two zeroes where a prefix length would normally sit.
• The AS handle spells out the abbreviation for autonomous system, this AS number, and the country code.
• Eighteen addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• Caribbean telecoms consolidated heavily, and this record is the receipt. Four corporate names appear across blocks announced by one network, each surviving in whichever field nobody had to update.
• A netname repeated as the registrant means a data entry step copied one column into another. It is harmless and it makes the block look owned by a label rather than a company.
• Announcing space registered to a neighbouring island's carrier is normal here, where one operator serves several territories and the paperwork follows the island rather than the network.
