What's "JUMPSTART-5" on the Comcast network?

[Graham Freeman]

Howdy,

I'm investigating a network abuse incident and am curious about the
meaning/significance of "JUMPSTART-5" on Comcast's network.

As I remember its an arbitrary field that the network owner gets to fill
in during the registration process

Curious what the outcome of this was? Unusual to see comcast IPs performing certain activities, I'm investigating something similar.

JUMPSTART-5 is an arbitrary handle assigned by Comcast to that block of
IP addresses. Note the handle of BAYAREA-CPE-26. BAYAREA-CPE-26 is a
suballocation of the parent JUMPSTART-5 allocation which appears to have
been allocated in 2007
