About this network

The company name has a plus sign in it, spelled out as a word in the very next field.

What it's used for

• A utility group's technology company. One IPv4 /20 and one IPv6 /48 announced from Germany, four thousand addresses, through two observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• The holder's name joins two words with a plus sign; the abuse contact on the same block writes the same name with the word for the symbol instead, in ordinary case.
• The AS handle repeats the whole company name, corporate form included, rather than using a short code.
• The netname is a four-letter abbreviation of a different, older organisation entirely.
• The IPv6 prefix comes from a range the registry uses for assignments that travel with the holder rather than with a provider.
• Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• A symbol in a company name is a problem every system downstream has to solve, and here two fields in one record solved it two different ways. Any search matching one spelling misses the other.
• A netname naming the parent utility while the holder field names the technology subsidiary is a corporate structure preserved in a field that was never meant to record one.
• Four thousand addresses as a single announcement, with an independent IPv6 assignment beside it, is a tidy footprint: two routes, two upstreams, nothing fragmented.
