AS6279 BTN-TWO
Unclassified APNIC
Summary
PCCW Global (formerly Beyond The Network America)
transit legacy
BTN-TWO — originally Beyond The Network America, Inc. (BTN), a US network
operator that became part of PCCW Global. The ASN is now registered to PCCW
Global (HK) Ltd. and appears in APNIC's registry after an inter-RIR transfer.
What it's used for
- Carries PCCW Global network space, including the legacy BTN
65.72.0.0/16block that moved to APNIC with the ASN, and European prefixes registered to PCCW Global Europe — one of which is named for a mobility/IoT platform in Ashburn, Virginia. - Announces both IPv4 and IPv6, but a modest footprint compared with PCCW Global's main backbone AS.
Notable
- A carrier network rather than an eyeball or hosting one: the address space supports PCCW Global's own platforms and downstreams, and the historic
AS-BTN-CUSTOMERSobject still records the BTN customer cone. - A neat example of an ASN outliving two corporate identities and crossing RIRs along the way.
