Summary
atom86
business hosting transit legacy
atom86 BV (ATOM86-AS) — a Dutch connectivity provider based around Amsterdam,
selling IP transit, datacentre and cloud interconnect, and colocation across
Netherlands datacentres.
What it's used for
- Corporate connectivity and hosted infrastructure for business customers. The rDNS is unusually revealing: addresses are named for the customer, in the form
hostNNN.customername.atom86.net, alongside customer-owned domains on atom86-announced space. - Backbone and platform hosts sit directly under
atom86.net(atoprt2sbp.atom86.netand similar router names).
Notable
- Not an eyeball network — no dynamic subscriber pools anywhere in the inventory. The addresses are enterprise sites, hosted servers and colocated gear.
- Heavily peered for its size: only around 19,000 IPv4 addresses, but hundreds of observed BGP neighbours, consistent with an AMS-IX-centric transit and interconnect business.
Interesting
- The customer-in-the-hostname rDNS convention makes the AS an unusually legible read on who a mid-size Dutch business ISP actually serves.
