Summary

PRO TV

Romania · AI-generated

media enterprise

A Romanian television broadcaster, holding one block of its own and renting the rest.

What it's used for

  • Broadcaster connectivity. 2,560 addresses in three IPv4 prefixes with three observed BGP neighbours and no IPv6 announced.

Notable

  • Two of the three blocks are registered to IPv4 Management SRL, netnames RO-IPV4-20050113 and RO-IPV4-20090623. The third, 193.230.227.0/24, is netname PROTV and sits with a different contact entirely.
  • The AS handle carries a street address in Bucharest: PRO-TV-AS B-dul Pache Protopopescu Nr 109 Et 1, floor number included.
  • The one PTR in the sample is smtp04.protv.ro.

Interesting

  • A company called IPv4 Management holding two of a broadcaster's three blocks is the address market made visible. Since the registries ran out, address space is leased and traded like any other asset, and the tenant appears in routing while the landlord appears in the registry.
  • The 193.230 block is the older arrangement: early European space handed out through a national institute acting as the local registry, back when getting addresses in Romania meant going to the organisation that also ran the country's domain names.

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: 442 networks and 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-17. 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.
