About this network

PACKETFABRIC-AS4556 — PacketFabric, Inc., a Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) carrier offering software-defined private connectivity: point-to-point circuits, virtual cross-connects, and on-ramps into the major public clouds.

What it's used for

• Carrier-grade transport and IP transit sold to enterprises and other networks, provisioned on demand through an API/portal rather than through traditional circuit ordering.
• Announces around 12,000 IPv4 addresses, modest for a carrier because most of its business is layer-2 transport for other people's addresses.

Notable

• A transit/backbone network, not an eyeball or hosting AS.
• Despite the low number, ARIN registered AS4556 to PacketFabric in 2017 — this is a reissued ASN and carries no early-internet pedigree.

Interesting

• PacketFabric merged with Unitas Global in 2023, combining an automated private-transport fabric with Unitas' managed internet and edge business.
