AS22690 announces 2 IPv4 prefixes covering 3,072 addresses and 1 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

AxiomNET-AS is operated by TransAfrica Communications, formerly known as Axiom Networks Ltd.

What it's used for

• The address space carries business-grade internet services, MPLS private networks, and last-mile connectivity, as indicated by the operator's service offerings and the netname ORG-ANL5-AFRINIC.
• With 3072 IPv4 addresses announced across 2 prefixes and 9 observed neighbours, the ratio suggests a regional access or eyeball network providing connectivity to end-users and businesses rather than a major transit provider.

Notable

• Registrants for both announced prefixes (196.223.240.0/21 and 41.242.140.0/22) are listed as Axiom Networks Ltd, consistent with the announcer, though the company has since rebranded.
• Axiom Networks Rwanda rebranded to TransAfrica Communications (TrAC) to expand into regional and international markets.
• The inventory consists of two IPv4 blocks and one IPv6 prefix (2c0f:6100::/32), all located in Rwanda.
