About this network

BASEFARM-SE-ASN is the Stockholm network of Basefarm, a Nordic managed hosting and cloud operator. The AS is now registered to Orange Business Digital Sweden AB: Basefarm was acquired by Orange Business Services, and the handle has outlived the independent brand.

What it's used for

• Managed hosting and application operations for Nordic enterprise and public sector customers — load-balanced application front ends, APIs and the supporting platform.
• About 6,600 addresses across four prefixes (80.76.144.0/20 is the largest) plus an IPv6 /32.

Notable

• rDNS is uniformly sth.basefarm.net — the Stockholm site — and the names are those of a managed-service platform rather than of an ISP: load-balancer VIPs fronting customer applications, edge gateways, and the operator's own office NAT. There is no subscriber, dynamic or residential naming anywhere.
• Seven observed BGP neighbours and no downstream networks: this is a destination network, not transit.

Interesting

• The customer-facing VIP names in the block are Swedish public-service applications, which is the shape of Basefarm's business — running other organisations' critical systems rather than selling raw capacity.
