hosting legacy

HOSTNETWORKS-AS-AU-AP belongs to Host Networks, a Brisbane-based

Australian hosting company offering colocation, cloud VPS and dedicated servers.

What it's used for

  • Serving customer workloads: colocation, virtual private servers, dedicated hardware and the connectivity around them.
  • Announcing the company's Australian IPv4 space (on the order of 17,000 addresses), a fairly large pool for a regional hosting provider.

Notable

  • This is a hosting network, not an eyeball network: the addresses front servers and customer machines rather than home broadband subscribers.
  • Registered through APNIC with a low AS number from the early 4608-4865 block, which is unusual for an Australian hosting shop of this size.
