5.4.0.0/14 (so 5.5.5.5) is Telefonica Germany. Same thing there.
Mercedes owns 53.0.0.0/8 which feels like a nice number for DNS too.
- capableweb 4y agoTelefonica and Orange are hardly companies that would just let you lease "valuable" ipv4 addresses without having to pay a hefty sum.
- andy_ppp 4y agoIf you only lease something the owner can at any time take your business and efforts from you.
- Terretta 4y agoIt's not the IP that's the problem. It's the "anycast" mapping of the IP to geographically and network diverse hosts to connect the user to the "closest" (for some value of latency that stays within the data governance jurisdiction). To do this, you basically have to own a large enough IP block that backbones will deal with it, and route map it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anycast https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anycast
