Summary
RAI Radiotelevisione Italiana
enterprise media legacy
The Autonomous System of RAI Radiotelevisione Italiana S.p.A. (RAI-AS),
Italy's national public-service broadcaster. RAI runs the country's main
television and radio networks and is one of the largest broadcasters in Europe.
What it's used for
- RAI's own corporate and broadcast-support network: its public web and streaming front-ends, newsroom and production systems, regional offices and the connectivity behind its editorial operations.
- The two announced prefixes both sit in
212.162.64.0/18, and reverse DNS across them is uniformly RAI's own generated naming, of the formhost-NNN.NNN.162.212.rai.it. Nothing else appears in the block.
Notable
- Enterprise/broadcaster space, not eyeball or hosting. Addresses here belong to the broadcaster; RAI does not sell connectivity, and there are no subscriber pools. Treat any IP in the range as institutional.
- RAI is state-owned but is an ordinary company (S.p.A.) rather than a government agency, so this is corporate rather than government address space.
- A single contiguous /18 held directly by the organisation, with about 18 peers, is the classic profile of a large Italian institution that took its own AS early and never needed a second one.
