AS11611 ARCTICFOX
Unclassified APNIC
Summary
Arctic Fox Networks Inc
isp hosting legacy
ARCTICFOX is Arctic Fox Networks Inc of Wasilla, Alaska — a small telecommunications and data-centre company. The AS number is low, but the network behind it is new: this is a reissued number, not an early-internet survivor.
What it's used for
Network and facility services in Alaska. The company describes itself as working in telecommunications and data centres, and the routing is consistent with a young provider that has stood up an edge and is growing into it: one announced v4 prefix, 23.158.112.0/24 (256 addresses), registered to NET-V4-BLK1 (org: Arctic Fox Networks Inc), plus one IPv6 prefix, 2602:fd61::/36. The /24 carries generic sequential reverse DNS — ip-23-158-112-5.arcticfoxak.com — which is the naming a provider gives to an address pool it hands out, in its own domain. First-party registrant, first-party rDNS: a real operator on its own space.
Notable
Thirteen observed BGP neighbours against a single /24 is the striking number. That is far more upstreams and peers than 256 addresses need, and it means the interesting part of this network is not its address count — it is connectivity. A /36 of IPv6 is an ISP-sized allocation too, sized for handing prefixes to customers rather than for internal use.
Interesting
ARIN registered this ASN to Arctic Fox on 2024-12-11, with the company itself incorporated in Alaska in 2019. AS11611 sits in a numeric range issued around the turn of the century, so the number has been recycled — a good reminder that a low AS number says nothing about a network's age.
The exact mix of transit, colocation and access service here is not settled by the evidence available, so it is deliberately left unclassified rather than guessed.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
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 1,772 prefixes, as published 2026-10-15. 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.
