Summary
Insight Direct USA (Insight Enterprises)
enterprise corporate legacy
INSIGHT-AS belongs to Insight Direct USA, Inc., the operating company of
Insight Enterprises — the Fortune 500 IT solutions integrator and reseller
headquartered in Chandler, Arizona.
What it's used for
- Insight's own corporate network and the services it fronts for customers: e-commerce and procurement portals, and managed/cloud offerings such as
ecfcloud.insight.com. - A mix of address space: a run of
/2xblocks carved from AT&T's12.0.0.0/8, a few directly-registered ARIN/24s, and one APNIC/24reflecting its international operations.
Notable
- This is corporate address space, not an ISP or a hosting network. An IP here belongs to Insight itself — its offices, its edge, its customer-facing applications — not to a tenant renting a server.
- Reverse DNS is sparse but unambiguous where it exists: the perimeter resolves under
insight.comand the olderinsightd.com(gate.insightd.com).
Interesting
- Insight sells and integrates other people's infrastructure at enormous scale, yet runs a fairly modest network of its own — a good reminder that address-space size tracks what a company operates, not what it sells.
