One netname is an allocation reference, the other is a city with the company name stuck to it.
What it's used for
- The network of a company making environmental and weather measurement instruments. 1,024 addresses across three IPv4 prefixes, with three observed BGP neighbours and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
199.33.72.0/23and199.33.75.0/24carry the netnameVAISALA-ALLOC22A.192.101.77.0/24carriesTUCSONVAISALA, a city name and the company name run together with no separator.- All three blocks are registered to the same entity with no role contact named.
- Nine addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- The two netnames were written by people with entirely different ideas of what the field is for. One treats it as a reference to a paperwork item, complete with a letter to distinguish it from a companion allocation. The other treats it as a label for a place, and runs two words together because the field allows no space.
- The city-named block sits in a much older range than the other two, so the site record is the earlier one, and the later allocation was filed by whoever inherited the estate.
- Instruments that report weather, road conditions and air quality send small amounts of data continuously from places with poor connectivity, which is the opposite of the traffic profile a thousand addresses would suggest. What is announced here is the collection end.
- Three upstreams for a network of this size is a sensible amount of redundancy for data nobody wants gaps in.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-28, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Reputation
Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 448 networks and 1,851 prefixes, as published 2026-10-29. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
