Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Atlanta Public Schools
education government infrastructure
Reverse names split the address in half: two octets hyphenated backwards, the other two as dotted labels.
What it's used for
- A city school district's network. 4,352 addresses across two IPv4 prefixes, one observed BGP neighbour, and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
173.242.68.0answers asstatic-0-68.242.173.atlantapublicschools.us.- The last two octets are hyphenated in reverse order, and the first two are separate dotted labels, also reversed.
- The district's own /20 is netname
ATLANTA-PUBLIC-SCHOOLS, with a network manager as contact. 168.9.22.0/24is netnameGDOENETand is registered to the state education department instead.- The domain ends in a country-level suffix rather than the usual educational one.
Interesting
- Splitting an address across two different separators in one hostname is a zone built by pointing the delegation at a subdomain per range, then generating names inside it. The result reads as two conventions colliding in the middle of one string.
- An address ending in zero having a name at all means the zone covers every slot in the range rather than only the usable ones, which is why the first entry sampled is one no machine can hold.
- A district carrying a state department's block under the same AS is public sector address space pooled the way rural providers pool theirs: whoever had the allocation kept it, and one network announces both.

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: 454 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-11-08. 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.
