Summary
NetAssist
transit hosting legacy
NetAssist LLC (NLineLLC) — a Kyiv-based network operator selling IP transit,
colocation and dedicated servers, with points of presence in Kyiv, Lviv, Sofia,
Warsaw, Frankfurt, Madrid and Thessaloniki. The handle preserves the earlier
N-Line name.
What it's used for
- Wholesale IPv4 and IPv6 transit for other networks, plus colocation and dedicated-server hosting. The rDNS on the backbone is exactly what a transit provider's looks like —
40ge0-352.FRA.DE.8772.asfor a Frankfurt link,gw-nline.8772.asfor a gateway — and customer space resolves undernetassist.ua. - The peering surface is the real signal: roughly 15,000 IPv4 addresses but around 323 observed BGP neighbours. Selling transit means appearing as transit to someone, and this AS plainly does.
Notable
- The IPv6 inventory dwarfs the IPv4 one: over 40 separate
/29allocations announced from this AS, most of them belonging to downstream LIRs it carries. NetAssist also runs a free public IPv6 tunnel broker, so v6 reach is part of the product rather than an afterthought. - The prefixes span Ukrainian, Bulgarian and Spanish registrations, which looks like the scattered multi-country shape an address broker wears. It is not one: every block is self-registered under NetAssist's own
MEREZHA-MNTmaintainer withNETASSIST-*netnames, matching its actual multi-country PoP footprint.
Interesting
- The RIPE object for this AS number was created in 2009, long after four-digit ASNs were first handed out. The low number here is a reassignment, not an early-internet pedigree.
