Summary
EPAG Domainservices
hosting business infrastructure
Four blocks of descending size, all registered on the same day in 1999.
What it's used for
- The network of a German domain registrar. 7,680 addresses across four IPv4 prefixes, one IPv6 prefix, and three observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The blocks are
212.123.48.0/20,212.123.32.0/21,212.123.40.0/22and212.123.44.0/23, each half the size of the last. - All four carry the identical netname
DE-ENTER-PRICE-19990705. - The IPv6 prefix is
2604:4000:8000::/48, from a range issued in a different region than the IPv4 space. - Twelve addresses were sampled and none returned a name.
Interesting
- Four blocks halving in size with one shared netname and one shared date is a single allocation that was later cut up for routing purposes. The registry still sees one assignment; the routing table sees four announcements. The descending sizes come from carving a block into progressively smaller pieces as each piece was needed.
ENTER-PRICEis a pun on enterprise, and it names a company that is not the current holder. The block has changed hands and kept somebody's joke, which will outlast the company that made it.- The IPv6 prefix comes from a range administered for a different part of the world than the IPv4 blocks. Address space is regional by registry, not by geography, so a European company that obtained IPv6 through an entity elsewhere ends up announcing space that geolocation databases will place on the wrong continent unless someone corrects them.
- Twelve addresses sampled, no names at all, from a company in the business of running domain names.

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 2026-10-18, 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: 443 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.
