About this network

One institution, three names, two blocks, and a single way out for thirty-three thousand addresses.

What it's used for

• A university health centre's network. Two IPv4 prefixes announced from the United States, no IPv6, thirty-three thousand and twenty-four addresses, through one observed BGP neighbour.

Notable

• The AS handle names a health centre at a town. The larger block is registered to the university at that town, without the health part; the smaller one to the health centre, without the town.
• The two netnames disagree the same way: one is the university at the town plus the first three parts of the address, the other joins the university's short form to a squeezed abbreviation of health centre and the town.
• The larger block lists a contact named for two functions joined by a conjunction, networks and operations.
• The two blocks differ enormously in size: one is nearly the whole announcement, the other the smallest size that routes.
• Six addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.

Interesting

• A large block and a tiny one under related but non-identical names is an institution given campus-scale space once and a service-sized block later, by a different office. The registry keeps both spellings because it has no way to know they are one place.
• Thirty-three thousand addresses through one upstream is heavy dependence on a single link, and ordinary for a campus connected through a research network.
• Nothing here answers a reverse lookup, so the naming lives inside a domain the registry never sees.
