AS6984 — NYNEX-AS
AS6984 announces 28 IPv4 prefixes covering 89,856 addresses and 10 IPv6 prefixes.
About this network
A Verizon Business autonomous system that still carries the handle NYNEX-AS, after NYNEX — the Regional Bell Operating Company for New York and New England — which merged into Bell Atlantic in 1997 and then became Verizon in 2000.
What it's used for
- Announces roughly 90k IPv4 addresses across dozens of prefixes drawn from Verizon's inherited estate: the GTE-registered 132.197.0.0/16 and blocks out of the old UUNET 63.0.0.0/8 allocations.
- Also acts as an upstream for a small number of Verizon-affiliated ASNs, including a Bell Atlantic AS and Tracfone Wireless.
Notable
- The handle is a corporate fossil. The organisation of record is Verizon Business in Ashburn, Virginia; NYNEX has not existed as a company since the 1990s.
- Almost none of the announced space carries reverse DNS, so the current use of these addresses is not publicly evident — treat any confident claim about what lives here with suspicion.
- It is not Verizon's transit backbone, which is AS701 — one of this AS's several upstreams.
