Summary
GOPAS Solutions
hosting business isp
One holder, three netname conventions, and eighteen years between the first and the last.
What it's used for
- A business connectivity and hosting provider in Germany. 9,984 addresses across four IPv4 prefixes, one IPv6 prefix, and 21 observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Netnames are
DE-GOPAS,DE-GOPAS-20000515andDE-GOPAS-20180131on the holder's own blocks. 195.248.136.0/23is registered asEXIS-DEtoVIPION-NOC, a different party entirely.- The AS handle is
GOPAS-AS Schellerdamm 16, with a street address appended. - The IPv6 allocation is a
/29. Twelve addresses were sampled and none returned a name.
Interesting
- The three netnames are the same organisation filling the same field in three different decades. The undated one came first, before the convention existed; the others follow it. Reading them in order gives the registry's own house style as it changed, not anything about the network.
- The block registered to another party is announced here regardless. That is either leased space or a customer who kept its own registration, and it is the case that makes announcement and registration worth checking separately.
- 21 neighbours against 10,000 addresses inverts the subscriber-network shape. This provider peers far more widely than its address count would suggest, which is what a business-focused operator sells: paths, not space.
- A
/29of IPv6 is a great deal of address space held by a network with four small IPv4 blocks.

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: 436 networks and 1,771 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.
