About this network

The reverse names carry two octets out of four, and which domain they sit on depends on the block.

What it's used for

• A provider's network. Three IPv4 prefixes announced from the Russian Federation, no IPv6, five thousand one hundred and twenty addresses, across three observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Four of nine queried addresses answered. Each name is the last octet, a dot, the third octet, a dot, then a domain, with the first two octets left out entirely.
• Two of those names use a domain matching the AS handle; the other two use one matching the holder's company name, under a different top-level domain.
• The netnames are a country code, the company name, and dates nine years apart, so the blocks were taken at two very different points.
• One block's registry lookup failed, so its registrant and netname are unknown rather than absent.
• Both readable blocks list a private individual as the first registrant, with the company second.

Interesting

• Dropping the first two octets works because reverse DNS delegation already encodes them: the zone the query lands in is chosen by the block, so the name only has to distinguish addresses within it. It makes the names shorter and makes them useless if you see one without knowing where it came from.
• Two brands on two blocks, each internally consistent, is what a company looks like when the trading name and the registered name were never reconciled.
