AS7406 — PDX-DC

AS7406 announces 2 IPv4 prefixes covering 512 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

Registered as PDX-DC, which reads like a Portland data centre — but the holder is B&R Auto Wrecking, a family-owned auto-recycling and used-parts business headquartered in Corvallis, Oregon. Both the organisation record and the ASN registration date to January 2015, so this low number was reissued to a modern holder.

What it's used for

• Corporate networking for a multi-site auto-salvage company that operates yards across several western US states.
• Announces two /24s — 50.216.166.0/24 and 50.207.166.0/24 — both of which sit inside Comcast Cable's address space, so this is a business customer routing carrier-assigned blocks under its own ASN, most likely to multihome.

Notable

• Enterprise address space, not hosting: 512 addresses total, no customer-facing or subscriber reverse DNS.
• A clean example of why an ASN name should never be trusted on its own. PDX-DC suggests infrastructure; the registrant contact handle traces back to the company's founding family.

Interesting

• The low AS number carries no early-internet pedigree here — it was assigned fresh in 2015 after the original holder gave it up.
