Unclassified RIPE Enterprise
Summary
SAP
enterprise hosting business
The netnames are a data-centre inventory: country, city, sequence number, one line per site.
What it's used for
- A software company's global network. 82,944 addresses across 66 IPv4 prefixes plus one IPv6 prefix,
2001:678:f88::/48, with 15 observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Netnames follow one scheme:
SAP-US-CHD,SAP-US-COS-1,SAP-US-COS-2,SAP-CA-YTO-1,SAP-CA-YTO-2,SAP-DE-FRA,SAP-NL-AMS-5,SAP-SA-RUH,SAP-SE-SIN,SAP-UAE-DUB. - The largest block,
155.56.0.0/17, carries the plain netnameSAP. 157.133.144.0/20carriesSAP-DC-WW1, the only one naming no country at all.- Registrants read
SAP,SAP SEorSAP UAEdepending on the block. - All 67 announced prefixes are attributed to the United States.
- Eighteen addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- Ten netnames name ten cities on four continents, and the sequence numbers say which of them have more than one site. A company that files its address space this way has published its own facility list to anyone willing to read a registry, without publishing a single hostname.
- Every prefix is attributed to one country while the netnames describe sites all over the world. Attribution follows where the space is registered and announced, not where the machines are, and this is as clear a demonstration of the gap as the registry offers.
SAP-DC-WW1breaks the pattern by refusing to name a place. Whatever runs there is either not tied to one site or not meant to be located from outside.- Sixty-six prefixes for 82,944 addresses means most blocks are small. Each site took what it needed and announced it separately.

Interconnection
Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Transit providers
11 upstream, 3 downstream and 22 adjacent networks observed; most-used upstreams first.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-26, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Reputation
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: 445 networks and 1,817 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
