About this network

The AS handle AFRICANBANK is held by African Bank, a South African financial institution.

What it's used for

• The address space is registered to Africanbank, indicating internal corporate infrastructure for a banking entity.
• The AS announces 256 IPv4 addresses within a single /24 prefix (196.15.12.0/24) and maintains 12 observed neighbours. This ratio of a small, single-block inventory against a moderate number of peering partners suggests a business network with specific connectivity requirements rather than a large-scale access or transit provider.

Notable

• The registry holder and AS name align directly with the operator, identifying the space as belonging to the bank itself.
• Secondary sources indicate the bank has undergone strategic acquisitions and a subsequent rebrand, which may explain the current network configuration and identity.
• The inventory consists of a single contiguous IPv4 block with no announced IPv6 prefixes, reflecting a focused, legacy-centric address allocation for corporate use.
