AS7819 GLOBAL-IP-NETWORKS

GLOBAL-IP-NETWORKS is Global IP Networks INC, a Dallas-area data centre and managed-services provider headquartered in Plano, Texas. AS7819 carries its colocation, managed-server and cloud customers.

What it's used for

• Colocation, managed servers, backup and disaster-recovery hosting out of two facilities in the Dallas/Plano metro.
• The core address space is its own ARIN allocation, 67.210.224.0/19, alongside 66.180.32.0/22, 66.128.48.0/20 and a handful of IPv6 2605:ae00::/35 blocks.
• Reverse DNS is customer-owned rather than provider-templated: names like mail.afslogistics.com, warranty.firsttexashomes.com and entegritymarine.com resolve inside the space. This is business hosting, not subscriber addressing.

Notable

• AS7819 also announces prefixes registered to other organisations, including 104.237.16.0/21 (Voice Carrier, LLC), 172.81.8.0/24 (Ark Network, Inc.) and 208.80.17.0/24 (Crydon Technology Corporation). That is the ordinary shape of a colocation and transit provider announcing space on behalf of tenants, not an address-broker inventory: the blocks are few, contiguous within their own allocations, and all ARIN-registered.
• Traffic from this space is far more likely to be a hosted server, a mail gateway or a business VPN endpoint than a home user.

Interesting

• The ASN was registered with ARIN in 2005, well after the low-numbered early-internet era, so the number itself carries no early-internet pedigree despite its size.
