Summary
EasyLink Services (OpenText)
enterprise legacy
EASYLINK-AS6468 — EasyLink Services Corporation, registered in Piscataway, New
Jersey. EasyLink's business messaging services were acquired by OpenText in 2012.
What it's used for
- Infrastructure for business messaging and transaction services: fax, EDI, managed file transfer, and secure document delivery for corporate customers.
- It announces prefixes out of the legacy
165.251.0.0/16block, whose ARIN registration dates to 1993 and is held under the EasyLink name.
Notable
- The EasyLink name descends from AT&T's EasyLink electronic-messaging service, later spun out and passed through Mail.com and EasyLink Services International before OpenText bought the company for around $310M in 2012.
- The ASN record itself was created in 2002, not the 1990s, so the number was reissued — the addresses it carries are far older than the AS number's current registration.
