What it's used for

• The address space carries hosting and residential services, evidenced by netnames such as TIBUS-CLOUD-THW2 and TIBUS-ULTRAFAST-BELFAST-WELB, and reverse DNS entries like 194-46-173-254.checkonehosting.com and u255.du.tibus.com.
• With 30,976 IPv4 addresses across 23 prefixes and 58 observed neighbours, the network functions as a UK-based access and hosting provider rather than a pure transit carrier.
