Vermont · network infrastructure
PeeringDB records five facilities in Vermont across three cities, holding twelve network presences. South Burlington has the most, where Lightboard Vermont alone counts seven networks and Tech Vault South Burlington adds two. Vermont has no internet exchange in the snapshot, so networks carry traffic out of the state to peer.

What a Vermont IP address tells you
South Burlington holds most of the capacity recorded in Vermont. Lightboard Vermont has seven networks, more than every other site in the state put together, and Tech Vault South Burlington has two. Burlington has SoVerNet Burlington and Consolidated - 266 Main St. with one network each, and VELCO Rutland has one. No exchange appears in the record and the peer count is zero, so the twelve presences here meet each other over transit or at exchanges in other states.
An address that geolocates to Vermont is repeating the record its operator published for the block. Providers read the registered address on the prefix, so an operator working across several states can register one block to a single location and have every customer on it read the same way. Mobile blocks stretch further. AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon route subscribers through a small group of mobile ASNs, and a handset in Burlington can present an address registered in another state.
Checking the origin ASN and the netname on the prefix answers more than the city field does. Whois names the holder of the block and the address it was registered to, and an ASN from the mobile ranges above marks the connection as a phone rather than a machine in South Burlington. An address that has to read as Vermont has to sit in a block the operator registered to a Vermont address.
Mobile carriers in the United States

Questions
How many data centres are in Vermont?
The snapshot lists five facilities across South Burlington, Burlington and Rutland, with twelve network presences between them. Lightboard Vermont in South Burlington holds seven of those and Tech Vault South Burlington holds two, which leaves one network each at the sites in Burlington and Rutland.
Is there an internet exchange in Vermont?
No. The record shows no exchange in Vermont and a peer count of zero, so networks with equipment in South Burlington, Burlington or Rutland exchange traffic through transit providers or carry it to an exchange in another state.
Can I get an IP address in Vermont?
That is set by the operator that holds the address block, not by a customer preference. The block reads as Vermont only if the operator registered it to a Vermont address. Mobile blocks in particular are registered broadly and often resolve to another state entirely.
