About this network

INSIGHT-AS belongs to Insight Direct USA, Inc., the operating company of Insight Enterprises — the Fortune 500 IT solutions integrator and reseller headquartered in Chandler, Arizona.

What it's used for

• Insight's own corporate network and the services it fronts for customers: e-commerce and procurement portals, and managed/cloud offerings such as ecfcloud.insight.com.
• A mix of address space: a run of /2x blocks carved from AT&T's 12.0.0.0/8, a few directly-registered ARIN /24s, and one APNIC /24 reflecting its international operations.

Notable

• This is corporate address space, not an ISP or a hosting network. An IP here belongs to Insight itself — its offices, its edge, its customer-facing applications — not to a tenant renting a server.
• Reverse DNS is sparse but unambiguous where it exists: the perimeter resolves under insight.com and the older insightd.com (gate.insightd.com).

Interesting

• Insight sells and integrates other people's infrastructure at enormous scale, yet runs a fairly modest network of its own — a good reminder that address-space size tracks what a company operates, not what it sells.
