Summary
Fundep / UFMG
AS10417 is registered to the Fundação de Desenvolvimento da Pesquisa (Fundep), the research support foundation created in 1975 that manages the administrative and financial side of research, teaching and extension projects for the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG). It sits on the Pampulha campus in Belo Horizonte.
What it's used for
RIS observes two IPv4 prefixes carrying 32,768 addresses and no IPv6: 200.236.128.0/18 and 200.238.192.0/18. Two clean /18s from LACNIC space, announced whole and undeaggregated, is the profile of an institution that received a block, uses it internally, and has no reason to play traffic-engineering games with it.
The reverse DNS is decisive about what the space actually carries: sampled addresses resolve as 5-192-238-200.rsf.ufmg.br and 5-224-238-200.rsf.ufmg.br. These are UFMG host names. The foundation is the registrant; the university is the user.
Notable
The kind is education, and this is a case where the rDNS beats the legal name rather than the other way round. "Fundação de Desenvolvimento da Pesquisa" tells you nothing on its own. ufmg.br PTRs across the announced blocks tell you the addresses serve a federal university's campus network.
Two observed BGP neighbours completes the picture: a university that multi-homes lightly, almost certainly onto the Brazilian national research network, and provides transit to nobody. Nothing here is a commercial ISP or hosting operation.

Classification and threat
Education University, school or national research and education network.
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: 442 networks and 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-17. 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.
