AS16111 announces 1 IPv4 prefixes covering 1,024 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

One block, two upstreams, and a record that has nothing else in it.

What it's used for

• A consultancy's network. A single IPv4 prefix announced from Switzerland, no IPv6, one thousand and twenty-four addresses, through two observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• The AS handle is the company name with the legal form removed and a hyphen inserted, and the netname is that same handle with the word for a network appended, so all three fields are the same two words wearing different suffixes.
• The block is registered to the company and a role contact for abuse, with no individual, no hostmaster and no second organisation.
• There is no IPv6 announcement at all, on a network that has been visible in routing since the earliest years of the collector's history.
• Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• Two upstreams and a thousand addresses is the shape of a company that hosts things for clients but never grew into a provider. The second connection exists so that the first one failing is an inconvenience rather than an outage.
• Records this bare are the majority of the routing table and almost never get written about. A network can be announced continuously for two decades and leave behind nothing but its own name spelled three slightly different ways.
