Summary

government legacy
The network of Leon County, Florida, whose seat is Tallahassee, the state capital.
What it's used for
- County government systems. 2,304 addresses over six prefixes with three observed BGP neighbours — a single end site, multihomed for resilience rather than for transit.
Notable
- Four different netname stems cover six prefixes:
NETBLK-LEONMIS,NETBLK-LEON-NET-FL,NETBLK-LEON-NET-FL2andNETBLK-LEON-C, the last one carrying three blocks. - All six prefixes come out of
198.0.0.0/8—198.180,198.183,198.202and three adjacent blocks in198.252. - One IPv6 announcement,
2602:80c:3000::/40, which is 2^88 addresses for a county of around three hundred thousand people.
Interesting
- The registry has the county's name spelled "Commisioners", with one
s. Whoever typed it typed it once, decades ago, and it has been the county's legal identity in the address registry ever since. Registry records are edited far less often than anything else an organisation publishes about itself. LEONMISis the oldest-looking of the stems, and MIS — Management Information Systems — is what county IT departments were called before they were called IT departments. The department has almost certainly been renamed since; the netname has not.- Tallahassee is a government town twice over: county offices, the state capitol and the legislature, plus Florida State and Florida A&M. A county running a
/40of IPv6 and its own AS is less surprising in that setting than the population figure alone suggests.

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 2026-10-27, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 446 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.
