Summary
Point North Networks
isp legacy
Two blocks from the same range with a /22-sized hole between them.
What it's used for
- Internet access and hosting. 3,072 addresses in two IPv4 prefixes with one observed BGP neighbour and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
- The two prefixes are
192.126.80.0/21and192.126.92.0/22, both netnamePNN-NET. - They are not adjacent.
192.126.88.0/21sits between them and this AS does not announce it. - Both records are registered directly to Point North Networks.
- Present in routing data since the collectors' earliest records in August 2000.
Interesting
- A gap in the middle of a company's own range is the normal result of asking for space twice. The first request gets what is free at the time, the second gets whatever is free later, and what falls between belongs to somebody else entirely.
- The
192.xrange was handed out as individual class C networks before classless routing existed, so blocks from it are frequently a patchwork rather than a block. Announcing a/21and a/22from it means these/24s happened to be consecutive enough to aggregate, which was not guaranteed. - One neighbour and a single netname across both prefixes describes a network that has stayed the shape it started as.

Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Transit providers

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-27, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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: 447 networks and 1,852 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.
