AS16074 announces 3 IPv4 prefixes covering 43,008 addresses and 1 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

Nine of ten blocks were registered on one day, splitting a single old allocation into pieces.

What it's used for

• An outsourcing company's network. Ten IPv4 prefixes and one IPv6 /40 announced from the Netherlands, forty-three thousand and eight addresses, across two observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• Eight blocks share one netname and one date, and every one of them is a slice of the same legacy range, from a /18 down to two /24s.
• That looks like a single old allocation being carved into documented pieces in one sitting, more than a decade after it was first held.
• Two others carry dates about a week apart from twelve years earlier, on unrelated ranges.
• The AS handle is the company name, the word for outsourcing, and a trailing underscore where the country code was cut off.
• The registrants are the national company and a registry role whose middle is three initials for the outsourcing division; one block adds a management role.
• Eighteen addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• Outsourcing means running other organisations' systems, so the address space here holds other people's workloads. Forty-three thousand addresses and no reverse names at all is consistent with that: the machines belong to clients who are named nowhere.
• Two upstreams for a network this size is a choice rather than an oversight. Everything reaches the clients through private connections that this record cannot show.
