AS10697 INTERLINK SA

AS10697 is registered to Interlink SA in Argentina. It is one of the smallest networks in this range: RIS observes 3 announced IPv4 prefixes — 200.50.161.0/24, 200.50.164.0/24 and 200.50.173.0/24, 768 addresses in total — no IPv6, and a single BGP neighbour.

What it's used for

The routing is that of a stub network hanging off a single national carrier: the sole observed neighbour is Telecom Argentina, one of the country's two incumbent operators. The three announced /24s are non-contiguous pieces of 200.50.0.0/16, LACNIC space consistent with the Argentine registration, and reverse DNS returned nothing on the six addresses sampled — which is a sample, not a finding, and is not treated as evidence of anything here.

Notable

The card stops short of assigning this network a purpose, because the evidence does not support one. "Interlink" is a common trading name and several unrelated Argentine companies use it, including an IT reseller and a software vendor that builds provisioning systems for cable operators and ISPs. None of them can be tied to this ASN from the routing data alone, and guessing between them would be worse than saying so. What can be stated with confidence is the shape: 768 addresses, one upstream, no deaggregation, no peering — a small organisation that runs BGP so it can keep its addresses, nothing more.

Interesting

Three scattered /24s rather than one block suggests space accumulated in separate small requests over time, which fits an early-internet Argentine allocation history.
