About this network

A netname joining a reseller's brand to a bank's initials, on a payment processor's block.

What it's used for

• A payment processor's network. Three IPv4 prefixes announced from the United Kingdom, no IPv6, one thousand two hundred and eighty addresses, across four observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Two blocks use the company's own brand as the netname, with nothing else in it.
• The third is TRUSTMARQUE-RBS, which is two other names: a technology reseller's brand and a bank's three initials, joined by a hyphen.
• All three blocks are registered to the same holder, so the third block's name records where it came from rather than where it is.
• The holder's name is written with the country code in parentheses, and the abuse team's name is the same words without them.
• The AS handle is the two letters for an autonomous system followed by the brand, with no separator.
• Nine addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• Payment processing needs very few addresses and very careful ones. Twelve hundred addresses behind four neighbours, with nothing answering a reverse lookup, is a network built to be reached by a short list of counterparties rather than by the public.
• A netname is the closest thing the registry has to a receipt. This one records a business changing hands twice while the addresses stayed where they were.
