Summary

isp hosting
A German provider with one allocation announced three ways and a pharmaceutical company's /24.
What it's used for
- Business connectivity and hosting. 7,424 addresses in seven IPv4 prefixes, one IPv6
/32, and three observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Three of the seven prefixes share netname
DE-MANDALA-20000830—217.13.168.0/21,217.13.164.0/22and217.13.162.0/23— one allocation split into three announcements. 193.17.18.0/24is netnameWOLFFNET, registered to Dr. August Wolff GmbH & Co. KG, a pharmaceutical manufacturer.- The remaining blocks carry their own dates:
20110801,20190529, and one bareMANDALA. - First seen in routing data in June 2007.
Interesting
- Splitting one allocation into three announcements costs three routing table entries instead of one, and the usual reason is that the pieces went to different places — different sites, different customers, or a range that was subdivided before anyone thought about aggregation.
- Carrying a drug company's own
/24is what a regional IT provider does for a client too large to renumber and too small to run its own AS. The customer keeps its addresses and its netname; the provider supplies the routing.

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 2026-10-14, 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: 442 networks and 1,773 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
