AS16138 announces 2 IPv4 prefixes covering 5,120 addresses and 1 IPv6 prefixes.
About this network
A web portal whose brand carries the country suffix inside the company name itself.
What it's used for
- A web portal's network. Two IPv4 prefixes and one IPv6 block announced from Poland, five thousand one hundred and twenty addresses, across seven observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The company name ends in the national domain suffix, so the legal entity, the brand and the website are the same string. The AS handle drops the suffix, and the netnames put a country code in front of the whole thing including the suffix, naming the country twice.
- The two netnames share a template of country code, brand and date, with the first from the last days of the year two thousand and the second from fourteen years later.
- Three of six queried addresses answered, each with the word for static, the four numbers of the address in hyphens, and the portal's domain.
- Both blocks list the company and a role contact for abuse, with no individual named.
Interesting
- Naming ranges static is a habit from the era when it was the exception worth marking. It tells anyone reading a log that the address belongs to a customer with a fixed assignment rather than to a pool.
- Portals were the first big consumers of hosting in their countries because they ran mail, news and search from their own machines. Five thousand addresses is a modest holding now, but it dates from when a company like this had to own everything it served.
