Summary
Pacific State University (Khabarovsk)
education research
A university in the Russian far east, carrying two names for itself in two registry records.
What it's used for
- Campus networking for a state university. 1,280 addresses in two IPv4 prefixes, three observed BGP neighbours, and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
- The inventory is
85.142.68.0/22and62.76.207.0/24. - The
/22carries the netnameKHSTU-PNU; the/24is simplyKHB. - The AS handle is
KHB1, and the registered holder is Pacific State University. - The
/24's registrant record also lists the institution as Pacific National University. - Six sampled addresses were queried and none returned a name.
Interesting
KHSTU-PNUis two abbreviations joined by a hyphen, and the registry record underneath carries both "State" and "National" versions of the university's English name. Institutions in this position get renamed, and the registry keeps every version that was current when a record was filed. The netname is the merge commit.KHBand the AS handleKHB1are the short form of Khabarovsk, the city in Russia's far east that theKHSTUabbreviation also starts with. Networks name themselves after places in three letters because that is what fitted in the fields the registry gave them.- Three neighbours for a campus network is more than a single research connection. Universities in remote regions often end up as the local interconnection point, because the academic network reached them before anyone else's did.

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 1,784 prefixes, as published 2026-10-19. 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.
