Unclassified APNIC
Summary
PIONIER (commercial)
research education infrastructure
The -COM in the handle marks the commercial side of a national research network.
What it's used for
- The commercial-traffic autonomous system of the Polish national research and education network. 1,280 addresses across five IPv4 prefixes, one IPv6 prefix
2001:b10:e000::/35, and twenty-two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The holder is an academy institute together with a supercomputing and networking centre.
- Two blocks carry the netname
Pionierin mixed case, unusual where nearly every netname is upper case. - Three blocks are
PL-LODMAN-981028, a six-digit date from 1998, registered to a university of technology. - A sampled address answered
z-Bialystok-COM.poznan-gw5.zim.rtr.pionier.gov.pl.
Interesting
- Research networks usually run two autonomous systems: one for traffic between institutions and one for everything commercial. The
-COMsuffix says which of the two this is, and the small address count fits a network that exists to reach the rest of the internet rather than to hold hosts. - That single reverse name carries more than most whole zones. It identifies two cities, a numbered gateway, a router role and the commercial side of the network, all in one label, and it sits under a government domain.
- A metropolitan academic network's 1998 label survives on three of five blocks, so the space predates the autonomous system announcing it by years.

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 2026-10-14, 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: 442 networks and 1,773 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.
