Summary
Virtualtec Solutions
hosting transit
A Swiss hosting company with one IPv4 block and forty BGP neighbours.
What it's used for
- Hosting. 2,048 addresses in a single
/21, one IPv6/32, and forty observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The one IPv4 prefix,
93.189.64.0/21, is netnameCH-VIRTUALTEC-20080424, registered to Virtualtec Solutions AG. - The IPv6 allocation is a
/32, announced as one prefix. - Reverse DNS answers as
net66-0.virtualtec.ch, naming the subnet rather than the host.
Interesting
- Forty neighbours against 2,048 addresses inverts the usual reading. Address count measures how many things a network has; neighbour count measures how many other networks it talks to directly, and a ratio like this describes a company that peers rather than one that grows.
- Switzerland makes that easy. The exchange points in Zurich and Geneva let a small provider reach hundreds of networks over a single port, so the cost of a peering session falls to nearly nothing and the sensible number of neighbours becomes all of them. A
/21in Zurich can have the connectivity of a network many times its size.

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: 454 networks and 1,854 prefixes, as published 2026-11-06. 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.
