About this network

One block, four upstreams, one name in every field, and no address that will admit to being there.

What it's used for

• A corporation's network. One IPv4 prefix announced from the United States, no IPv6, one thousand and twenty-four addresses, through four observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• The AS handle, the netname and the holder are all the same word. The holder writes it in capitals and adds the corporate form; the other two are the word alone.
• The entire holding is one contiguous block, registered to the company itself with no other contact listed.
• Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
• Four observed neighbours carry a single block, which is more upstreams than prefixes.
• The country field in this record is missing the small word between the two halves of the country's name.

Interesting

• Four upstreams for one block is a company buying availability rather than capacity. The address space never grew; the number of ways to reach it did, which is the shape of a business that cannot be offline and does not need to be large.
• A record where the handle, the netname and the holder are one word is a company that registered everything at once and never reorganised. There is no acquisition residue here because there was no acquisition.
• Silence in reverse DNS on a thousand addresses behind four carriers means whatever is inside talks outward, not inward. The redundancy is for the staff's connection, not for anyone visiting.
