This specific case is not involved with observed abuse, but it elicited my curiosity. It is not the first time that I see such things, and I'd like to see what other people think. A GB entity with a ukrainian director, incorporated on 23 March 2024, gets an ASN (AS215158) assigned by RIPE NCC on 05 April 2024, and now, just a week later, they are announcing no less than ten /29 IPv6 networks regularly assigned to them: 2a11:e8c0::/29 2a11:ea80::/29 2a11:ff40::/29 2a12:1040::/29 2a12:2e80::/29 2a12:3c00::/29 2a12:8580::/29 2a12:8a00::/29 2a12:9300::/29 2a12:d080::/29 That is quite a bit of space, indicating the entrance in the field of a large communication company making a large investment on infrastructure in preparation for a sizable number of users. So you look for their website, but in vain. They do not even expose their domain in the RIPE database, just a mailbox on a freemail. So my curiosities are: - what will this huge IPv6 space be used for? - what is the business area of this company? - can any individual easily grab ten /29's just for the fun of it, since there are plenty of them (2^29) before we need to think about 512-bit IPv8? - shouldn't the intended usage be made publicly visible somehow, so that the community can see how and why the space is used, and statistics can be made? (if it is already, I apologize and will appreciate pointers). Natale M Bianchi Spamhaus Project
