About this network

AS9678 (HOSTINGINSIDE-INTL) is held by HostingInside LTD, a Taichung-based Taiwanese hosting company selling VPS, dedicated servers and colocation. The provider advertises presence in several cities beyond Taiwan, and its routing inventory matches that claim rather than a single-country footprint.

What it's used for

This is a small multi-region hosting network. RIS sees 20 IPv4 prefixes carrying 5,120 addresses and 4 IPv6 prefixes, with 24 observed BGP neighbours. The neighbour count is the interesting number: two dozen peers against only twenty /24s means this network peers far more widely than its size would suggest, which is what a hosting provider that shows up at internet exchanges in several metros looks like. It is not buying transit at one door and reselling it.

The IPv4 inventory is entirely /24s, and they are drawn from more than one RIR at once: APNIC space (103.37.4.0/24, 103.98.73.0/24, 223.26.0.0/24, 203.66.151.0/24), RIPE space (2.58.240.0/24–2.58.243.0/24) and ARIN space (74.214.160.0/24, 74.214.161.0/24). Scattered single /24s across multiple registries is also the shape an address broker leaves, so it is worth being explicit about what separates this case: the reverse DNS across both the APNIC and the RIPE blocks resolves to HostingInside's own naming (151-66-203-5.hostinginside.com, 242-58-2-5.hostinginside.com), so the provider is operating the space itself, not warehousing it. One sampled address carries a customer-set name outside that pattern, as expected on server hosting.

Notable

• Expect server, VPS and colocation traffic from this AS, not consumer access.
• The company runs more than one ASN; this legacy number is not the whole of its network.
