[AusNOG] IP Information

[Shaun McGuane]

Just want to chime in here ....

Recently we contacted speedtest.net about an ip range of which we have had owned for 2 years still showing previous owners information.

Even though apnic and maxmind does not show this - it was being cached on their network and this caused the information to be incorrect when customers were running the speedtest itself.

Thanks

FWIW, looking at the example given (103.18.207.80), whois for the address/network both give "GloVine Pty Ltd - MultiPurpose Network" which does not match what is shown.

That network is announced by AS132839, which whois says is "GloVine Pty Ltd - Sydney Gaming Network".  Maxmind's ISP and Organization databases also give the ISP/Organization are "GloVine Pty Ltd - Sydney Gaming Network" - which matches the output shown.

No, it is NOT a whois - or at least, not a whois on the IP address.

If I had to guess I'd say it's coming from Maxmind's "ISP" database, although it is also possible that it's based on the AS owner information.
