About this network

PAAL-AS is operated by Erwin Paal, a researcher associated with Hogeschool Saxion in Enschede, Netherlands.

What it's used for

• The address space consists exclusively of three IPv6 prefixes: 2a12:bec0:5d0::/46, 2a12:bec0:5d6::/48, and 2a12:bec0:5da::/48.
• With zero IPv4 addresses and five observed neighbours, the network functions as a small-scale research or educational endpoint rather than a transit or access provider.
• Traffic from this AS represents research infrastructure and network testing tools, including Globalping lookups, associated with academic work in the Netherlands.

Notable

• The registry holder and PeeringDB profile both identify Erwin Paal, confirming the operator identity.
• The address inventory is minimal, comprising only three IPv6 prefixes with no IPv4 allocation, typical of a personal or academic research network.
