Summary
Verizon Business (VRIS-6995)
enterprise legacy
A Verizon Business autonomous system (VRIS-6995) that announces legacy GTE
Internetworking address space.
What it's used for
- Announces about 9k IPv4 addresses from the GTE-registered
206.124.64.0/19and from Verizon's blocks in63.36.0.0/11. - Reverse DNS still resolves under
gte.net, with generic per-address hostnames in a Dallas-Fort Worth pool (for exampledfw72120.gte.net) alongside a few named servers — the residue of GTE's internet service, which folded into Verizon after the 2000 merger.
Notable
- A stub AS: its only upstream is [AS701](https://asn.ipinfo.app/AS701), Verizon's transit backbone, and it has no downstream ASNs of its own. It is not itself a transit network.
- The generic reverse-DNS naming means the current use of the addresses cannot be read off the DNS with confidence; the naming is inherited from the GTE era, not necessarily descriptive of what runs there now.
