Summary

business legacy
A small Estonian network announcing one IPv4 block and one IPv6 sub-allocation.
What it's used for
- 1,024 addresses in a single
/22, one IPv6/40, and two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The IPv4 block is
45.132.64.0/22, out of45.0.0.0/8— space RIPE only began handing out after the regional pools were exhausted, and none of it existed in European routing tables before the 2010s. - The AS itself was first seen in the routing data in February 2003.
- The IPv6 announcement is
2a0c:1180::/40, a sub-allocation rather than a provider's own/32.
Interesting
- The number is two decades older than the addresses it carries. AS numbers and address blocks are separate resources with separate lifetimes, and they part company routinely: the space an AS announced in 2003 can be long gone while the number itself changes hands, keeps its registration and picks up something new. Reading a routing table as though the two aged together is one of the easier mistakes to make.
- The holder shares its name with Xvid, the open-source MPEG-4 video codec that came out of the fallout when DivX went commercial. The registry says nothing about the connection, and a name is not evidence of one.

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 2026-10-10, 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: 431 networks and 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. 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.
