AS8841 — US-NYC-MARLINK-MSS Marlink AS

AS8841 announces 3 IPv4 prefixes covering 4,096 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

US-NYC-MARLINK-MSS is held by Marlink AS, the Norwegian-rooted maritime and remote-site satellite connectivity provider. The handle names Marlink's MSS (Mobile Satellite Services, the L-band Inmarsat/Iridium side of the business) and its New York presence.

What it's used for

• Addressing behind satellite terminals: vessels, offshore platforms and remote land sites that Marlink connects. The AS in Marlink AS is Norwegian aksjeselskap, a company suffix, not "autonomous system".

Notable

• Small and quiet: three prefixes, roughly 4,096 IPv4 addresses, only three observed BGP neighbours, and no IPv6. This is a service gateway, not a carrier backbone.
• No PTRs came back on the addresses sampled. That is an observation about those addresses, not a claim that the zone is undelegated.
• These addresses should not be geolocated. Marlink's customer terminals move with the ships and rigs they are bolted to, and the space is RIPE-registered 193.220.0.0/16 despite the US-NYC handle. The New York label describes a gateway, not where the endpoints are.
