Summary
Trans-System
business enterprise
Netname and hostnames preserve two different generations of the same carrier's name.
What it's used for
- A trucking and logistics company's network. 256 addresses in a single IPv4 prefix, with two observed BGP neighbours and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
- The whole footprint is
63.235.120.0/24, carrying the netnameCENTURYLINK-LEGACY-QWEST-INET-17and registered to the carrier. - All three sampled addresses answer under
dia.static.qwest.net, using the older of the two brands in that netname. - The three letters before
staticabbreviate the product these addresses are sold as. - Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and all three returned a name.
Interesting
- The netname records the acquisition explicitly, naming the acquiring carrier, marking the range as inherited, then naming the carrier it came from. The DNS never got the memo and still answers under the acquired brand, so the same addresses present two corporate eras depending on which system you ask.
- Labelling the product in the hostname tells anybody looking that these are dedicated business circuits rather than consumer connections, which is a fair amount of commercial detail to publish by default.
- A trucking company's routed block covers dispatch and customer-facing tracking; the trucks themselves reach it over mobile networks with no addresses here.
- Two upstreams keeps dispatch reachable when one carrier path fails.

Internet exchanges
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 2026-11-07, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 454 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-11-08. 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.
