AS9118 announces 1 IPv4 prefixes covering 256 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

AS9118 belongs to Novo Banco, S.A., a major Portuguese retail and commercial bank (the successor institution carved out of Banco Espirito Santo in 2014).

What it's used for

This is a single-purpose corporate banking network. It announces one IPv4 /24 (194.145.121.0/24, 256 addresses) with one observed neighbour and no IPv6, the minimal footprint of an enterprise that holds an ASN for provider-independent, multi-homable address space rather than to run a public network. The space carries the bank's own internet-facing and inter-connectivity infrastructure.

Notable

• A single /24 and one neighbour is characteristic of enterprise PI space, not an ISP or hosting operation.
• No PTRs were returned on the address sampled, unremarkable for a closed corporate banking block.

Interesting

Although the prefix has been announced from this AS since around 2000, the holder name reflects the post-2014 Novo Banco entity; the address space itself carries the institution's banking infrastructure.
