Summary
RECONN
isp transit hosting
European addresses registered to Seychelles and Hong Kong companies, announced from Moscow.
What it's used for
- Access, hosting and transit in Russia. 21,760 addresses in 37 IPv4 prefixes, four IPv6 prefixes, and 93 observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The operator's own blocks are
RU-RCN-19960719, dated July 1996, andRU-RCN-20090723. - Three prefixes carry
SC-NET-20181101,SC-NET-20181106andSC-NET-20190515, registered to iNet Ltd. - Three more carry
HK-NEXT-20181115, registered to Next Limited. - One is
RU-DOMAINSRU, registered to DOMENY.RU LLC. - The IPv6 announcements include a
/29,2a05:4800::/29, and a/48from2001:67c.
Interesting
SCandHKare country codes for the Seychelles and Hong Kong, attached to European address space announced from Russia. That combination is the visible end of the market in IPv4: when a registry stopped issuing new blocks, addresses became an asset that could be bought, leased and held through whichever corporate structure suited, and the netname records where the paperwork went rather than where the packets go.- All six of those blocks were registered within seven months of each other. A cluster like that is one transaction, or one arrangement, split across several records.
- A
/29of IPv6 is eight times the standard allocation, which a registry issues when an operator documents a need for it. Holding that much v6 alongside 21,760 v4 addresses is the inversion the protocol was designed to produce, and it is still unusual enough to notice.

Interconnection
Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Transit providers
18 upstream, 36 downstream and 62 adjacent networks observed; most-used upstreams first.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-11, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 432 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
