Summary

The inventory calls this number reserved while the registry names a holder for it.
What it's used for
- A small United States research company's network. 256 addresses in one IPv4 prefix,
198.153.213.0/24, one observed BGP neighbour, and three IPv6 prefixes.
Notable
- The AS handle recorded in inventory reads
-Reserved AS-, but the registry holder lookup returnsGENERAL-RESEARCHand the company's name. - The block is netname
GRL-IPV4-001, registered to the same company. - The IPv6 announcements are
2602:f4f0::/47,2602:f4f0:2::/48and2602:f4f0:10::/48, three pieces that do not sit next to each other. - Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- Other systems carrying the reserved-number placeholder have no registry record behind them at all. This one does, so the placeholder is a stale copy in one dataset rather than a gap in the registry. The two sources disagree and only one of them has been updated.
- Three separate IPv6 routes carved from what is clearly one allocation, against a single IPv4 route, is a network experimenting with the larger address family while the older one stays as it was.
- The netname's
IPV4marker and its001serial were written by someone expecting to need a second one, and no second one appears.

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.
