Summary
Kwangwoon University
KWANGWOON-AS-KR is the campus network of Kwangwoon University, a private university in Nowon-gu, Seoul with a long-standing focus on electronics, information technology and engineering.
What it's used for
The AS carries the university's own estate: faculty and administrative networks, student and dormitory access, laboratory and research systems, and the institution's public web presence. Kwangwoon's engineering and electronics departments are the historical heart of the place, and networks like this one typically also carry teaching labs that need routable address space rather than NAT.
Notable
This is education, and it is the combination of two figures that proves it rather than either alone. RIS sees 84 IPv4 prefixes carrying 22,016 addresses — a 223.194.0.0/19 plus a very long tail of /24s scattered across 128.134.x, 223.194.x, 114.70.x and 210.207.x — yet only 2 observed neighbours. Eighty-four prefixes would, in a commercial network, imply aggressive traffic engineering across many transits. Here there are two upstreams and nowhere for that engineering to go. The fragmentation is therefore historical, not operational: decades of separate KRNIC assignments announced individually because nobody ever had a reason to aggregate them. That pattern — heavy deaggregation, negligible peering, a five-digit address count for a mid-sized campus — is characteristic of long-established Korean universities.
Interesting
The 128.134.0.0 space is legacy Class B territory handed out before APNIC existed, which places Kwangwoon among Korea's early-connected institutions.

Interconnection

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-26, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 445 networks and 1,817 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
