Hosting RIPE
Summary
Onet.pl
media hosting business
A news portal whose reverse names map its data centre, its mail system and its VPN gateways.
What it's used for
- The network of a major Polish web portal and its publishing group. 7,680 addresses across 10 IPv4 prefixes, one IPv6 prefix, and ten observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Most blocks carry
PL-ONET-20000125, with a newerPL-ONET-20110624and aRASP-PL. - Two registry lookups failed, so nothing here describes those blocks' records.
- Five of eighteen sampled addresses returned names, including
141-105-21-254.pl-krk-ruc-1.compute.dreamlab.cloud,213-180-149-255.poczta.onet.pl,svpn-lemur-2.net.onet.plands8.m8r2.pdmz.onet.pl.
Interesting
- The five reverse names describe four different systems. One names a compute region with a city code and a facility number under a separate cloud domain, one names the mail service, one names a VPN gateway, and two sit under
pdmz, the standard abbreviation for a public demilitarised zone where internet-facing servers live. A network diagram is legible from five hostnames. svpn-lemur-2names a gateway after an animal. Choosing a naming theme is one of the oldest habits in system administration, and it survives into infrastructure that is otherwise entirely mechanical, because somebody has to remember which box is which.- The portal's own brand appears in the handle and the netnames while the registrant is a multinational publishing group. The consumer-facing name outlived several changes of ownership above it, which is the reverse of the usual pattern where the corporate name persists and the brand does not.
- Ten neighbours for a national portal is peering with the networks whose users read it.

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: 442 networks and 1,782 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
