AS12168 DANAONMISSIONBAY-GUEST-INTERNET - The Dana On Mission Bay
Unclassified ARIN
Summary
The Dana on Mission Bay
enterprise legacy
The guest internet of a San Diego waterfront hotel, run as its own autonomous system.
What it's used for
- Hotel guest access. 512 addresses in one
/23with a single observed BGP neighbour and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
- The AS handle says what it is outright:
DANAONMISSIONBAY-GUEST-INTERNET. - The
/23is registered to the hotel itself under the netnameTHEDANA, not to a hospitality network vendor. - One prefix, one neighbour. It has been announcing since the early 2000s.
Interesting
- Almost no hotel has an AS number. Guest wifi is normally a service somebody else operates behind their addresses, and the property never appears in routing data at all. This one holds its own registered space and its own AS, which means that at some point in the early 2000s somebody at a resort on Mission Bay filled in the paperwork for provider-independent addresses in order to give guests internet access.
- 512 addresses for a few hundred rooms is the arithmetic of the era it was set up in, when every device on a network got a public address because there was no reason yet not to. What is unusual is not the size but that it survived: the allocation has outlasted the assumptions that produced it.

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: 453 networks and 1,848 prefixes, as published 2026-11-13. 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.
