• The AS announces 327680 IPv4 addresses across 30 prefixes and 24 IPv6 prefixes, with only 2 observed neighbours, indicating a self-contained internal network rather than a transit or access provider.

• The inventory is finely subdivided into multiple /16, /17, /18, and smaller blocks, reflecting site-by-site segmentation of the Commission's internal estate.
