About this network

A Verizon Business autonomous system (VRIS-6995) that announces legacy GTE Internetworking address space.

What it's used for

• Announces about 9k IPv4 addresses from the GTE-registered 206.124.64.0/19 and from Verizon's blocks in 63.36.0.0/11.
• Reverse DNS still resolves under gte.net, with generic per-address hostnames in a Dallas-Fort Worth pool (for example dfw72120.gte.net) alongside a few named servers — the residue of GTE's internet service, which folded into Verizon after the 2000 merger.

Notable

• A stub AS: its only upstream is AS701, Verizon's transit backbone, and it has no downstream ASNs of its own. It is not itself a transit network.
• The generic reverse-DNS naming means the current use of the addresses cannot be read off the DNS with confidence; the naming is inherited from the GTE era, not necessarily descriptive of what runs there now.
