About this network

The network of Gulfnet International Co. / KEMS, one of Kuwait's oldest internet service providers, today trading as KEMS Zajil Telecom.

What it's used for

• Consumer and business internet access in Kuwait: ADSL, GPON fibre, and enterprise data services.
• Subscriber address pools are visible in reverse DNS as …adsl.kems.net, which is the clearest signal that this AS carries eyeball traffic rather than pure infrastructure.
• Announces roughly 118k IPv4 addresses, mixed between legacy ARIN-era space (168.187.0.0/16) and RIPE space (80.184.0.0/16).

Notable

• KEMS was established in 1992 and was the first ISP licensed by Kuwait's Ministry of Communications, which explains why a Gulf ISP holds a four-digit AS number at all.
• The AS record is administered by the RIPE NCC today but sits inside an ARIN-originated block, a hallmark of the early-registration transfers that moved pre-RIR resources to the regional registries.
