Summary
NIC.BR
infrastructure research measurement
The national registry's own network, with blocks named by number rather than by word.
What it's used for
- The network of the body that runs a country's address registry and exchange points. 1,024 IPv4 addresses across four prefixes, seven IPv6 prefixes, and 37 observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The four IPv4 blocks carry the netnames
130056,130056,138027and174375. - Those are record numbers, not names, and two separate blocks share one of them.
- The seven IPv6 announcements are
/48s scattered through one range, at positions1e11,1e19,1e21,1e31,1e48,1e51and1e85. - Twelve addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- Thirty-seven observed neighbours against a thousand addresses is the signature of an organisation that exists to interconnect other people rather than to carry its own traffic. The address count measures what it runs; the neighbour count measures what it is for.
- Numeric netnames come from a registry whose database was designed around identifiers rather than labels. It is machine-tidy and human-hostile, and it makes the two blocks sharing a number legible as one allocation split into pieces.
- Every one of those IPv6 positions is written with digits alone, though the notation allows letters. Positions chosen to read as ordinary numbers are easier to say aloud and easier to type, which matters when each one is handed to a different site.
- Seven end-site blocks spread across a wide range, rather than packed together, suggests the ranges between them are handed out to others.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-13, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 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.
