AS15902 announces 1 IPv4 prefixes covering 256 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

The handle is the words "Autonomous System" themselves, with no name attached.

What it's used for

• A small network. One IPv4 /24 announced from Poland, no IPv6, two hundred and fifty-six addresses, through a single observed BGP neighbour.

Notable

• There is no holder name in the routing record at all, and the AS handle is the generic term for what the number is rather than an identifier for whose it is.
• The block's netname names a mail sender and the abbreviation for the internet, which is the only clue in the record about what the addresses do.
• The registrant is a private individual with a trading name, written entirely in lower case.
• The whole holding is one route behind one upstream, unchanged since the routing archive began.
• Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• Every autonomous system is an autonomous system, so the handle carries no information whatsoever. It is what a field looks like when the form was submitted with the label still in the box.
• A netname built around sending mail on a single /24 behind one upstream is the shape of address space acquired for reputation rather than capacity. Mail delivery depends on the history of the address, so a block with no history is worth having and worth keeping separate.
• Two hundred and fifty-six addresses is the smallest thing the routing table will carry, which makes this the minimum viable independent network.
