Summary
thyssenkrupp Steel Europe (via Verizon)
enterprise legacy
VERIZON-THYSSENKRUPP-STEEL-EUROPE is a customer Autonomous System operated by Verizon on behalf of thyssenkrupp Steel Europe AG, the Duisburg-based steel division of the thyssenkrupp group. The aut-num is held by Verizon Switzerland AG; the addresses belong to thyssenkrupp.
What it's used for
- A single /24 carved out of thyssenkrupp's legacy
139.27.0.0/16, registered to thyssenkrupp Steel Europe AG, Kaiser-Wilhelm-Str. 100, 47166 Duisburg. - Corporate connectivity only — one upstream, no downstream networks, no public reverse DNS on the announced /24.
Notable
- The holder country and the address country differ: the AS is registered to a Swiss Verizon entity while the routed space is German corporate space. Geolocate it to thyssenkrupp in Germany, not to Switzerland.
- This is a managed-service pattern that shows up repeatedly in the low-8000s: a carrier registers and announces an AS on behalf of one named enterprise customer. The AS describes an industrial company, not a telecom.
