About this network

The same telephone company is written three different ways across seven blocks.

What it's used for

• A rural telephone company's network. Seven IPv4 prefixes and one IPv6 prefix announced from the United States, five thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight addresses, through two observed BGP neighbours.

Notable

• The holder is four initials and a corporate form. Three blocks name the same company in full, one shortens its first word to two letters, and one carries a third company's brand with a numbered block label.
• The netnames run in four unrelated styles: initials with a version marker for the address protocol; the word for a network joined to a third brand's initials and the whole address; that word and the address alone; and a place name with a counter.
• Seventeen of eighteen queried addresses answered, across two domains, and only one of those domains matches the holder.
• Names on the other domain open with a four-letter town label and a number, then the access technology: a line technology, wireless, a word for a fixed address, or a three-letter label for a changing one.
• One name drops the first two parts of the address, leaving the town label, a number and a single part.

Interesting

• Four spellings of one company in one record is what address space looks like when it arrives in pieces from different offices. Nothing merges them, because nothing is looking.
• Two access technologies and both kinds of address in the same naming template is a provider that built one generator and pointed every service at it.
