AS11767 QTS-MIA

QTS-MIA belongs to Quality Technology Services — QTS Data Centers — the wholesale and colocation operator registered to ARIN org QTS-9 in Suwanee, Georgia. The handle names the Miami site, and this AS is the number that site's network runs under.

What it's used for

Colocation and managed hosting. RIS sees 9 IPv4 prefixes totalling 11,264 addresses, an IPv6 /32 at 2607:f998::/32, and 26 observed BGP neighbours. Two dozen adjacencies against eleven thousand addresses is the profile of a data centre rather than an enterprise: the peer count comes from carriers and networks meeting at the facility, while the address count reflects space handed to tenants. QTS announces both its own blocks and its customers' assignments from this one AS, which is normal for a colo provider that provides IP transit to the cabinets it rents.

Notable

The registrant list looks mixed and is not a leasing tell. 209.208.192.0/20 registers to Community Connect Inc and 199.175.44.0/22 to Televideo Services, but both sit inside QTS-held parent blocks and carry QTS- netnames — customer reassignments, correctly SWIPed. The two 68.70.124.0/24 and 68.70.125.0/24 blocks register to Magaya Corporation, a logistics software company, under netname MC-808. That is a tenant with its own address space, announced by the facility that hosts it: the ordinary shape of colocation, and the opposite of unrelated shell registrants.

Interesting

ARIN dates the AS to 2007. QTS itself grew by buying existing facilities and the networks inside them, so a site-scoped handle like QTS-MIA often carries address history older than the brand now on the door.
