Unclassified RIPE
Summary
Marlink (MSS division, New York)
enterprise satellite legacy
US-NYC-MARLINK-MSS is held by Marlink AS, the Norwegian-rooted maritime and
remote-site satellite connectivity provider. The handle names Marlink's MSS
(Mobile Satellite Services, the L-band Inmarsat/Iridium side of the business) and
its New York presence.
What it's used for
- Addressing behind satellite terminals: vessels, offshore platforms and remote land sites that Marlink connects. The
ASin Marlink AS is Norwegian aksjeselskap, a company suffix, not "autonomous system".
Notable
- Small and quiet: three prefixes, roughly 4,096 IPv4 addresses, only three observed BGP neighbours, and no IPv6. This is a service gateway, not a carrier backbone.
- No PTRs came back on the addresses sampled. That is an observation about those addresses, not a claim that the zone is undelegated.
- These addresses should not be geolocated. Marlink's customer terminals move with the ships and rigs they are bolted to, and the space is RIPE-registered
193.220.0.0/16despite the US-NYC handle. The New York label describes a gateway, not where the endpoints are.
