Summary
Charles Schwab & Co., Inc.
enterprise legacy
CHARLES-SCHWAB is the corporate network of Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., the San Francisco-headquartered brokerage and financial-services firm. This is an in-house enterprise AS, not a service provider.
What it's used for
- Announcing Schwab's own corporate and customer-facing infrastructure: the bulk of the routed space sits inside
162.93.0.0/16, a block ARIN registered to Schwab in 1992. - Reverse DNS on the announced prefixes resolves under
schwab.com, confirming this is Schwab's own estate rather than leased-out address space.
Notable
- A classic institutional-enterprise AS: a large legacy
/16announced as several dozen smaller prefixes, all pointing back to one company. - The registrant address on file is Schwab's 211 Main Street, San Francisco headquarters.
- Financial-sector enterprises of this era commonly took direct ARIN allocations and their own AS number rather than riding a carrier's addressing, and this is a textbook example.
