AS10818 FULLNETOK

FULLNETOK is FullNet Communications, Inc., a small publicly-traded (OTC: FULO) Oklahoma City company running a carrier-neutral colocation facility along with web hosting and internet access services. RIS sees 1 IPv4 prefix carrying 4,096 addresses, no IPv6, and 2 observed neighbours.

What it's used for

Colocation, hosting and connectivity for Oklahoma businesses and organisations. The entire network is one clean 216.226.16.0/20, announced whole. What that space carries shows up plainly in reverse DNS: ip-216-226-16-5.static.formysite.com is a hosting-style static-assignment name, and mail.enid.org is a customer mail host for a community domain in Enid, Oklahoma. Between them they describe the business exactly, statically-assigned hosted and colocated infrastructure for regional customers rather than a residential access pool.

Notable

A single un-deaggregated /20 and two neighbours is about as simple as a routing footprint gets. FullNet's own filings describe the data centre as carrier-neutral and staffed around the clock, marketed to competitive local exchange carriers, ISPs and businesses. The point of a carrier-neutral facility is that the customers choose their carrier, which is why the operator's own AS needs so little transit of its own.

Interesting

FullNet is a survivor: an independent regional operator that still holds the legacy ASN and /20 it was allocated, still originates them itself, and has moved its business from selling access toward selling floor space and hosting. Most of its contemporaries in this ASN range were absorbed by larger carriers. It is also a reminder that "publicly traded" says nothing about scale: FullNet is a micro-cap sharing this ASN range with some of the largest banks in the world.
