Summary
State of New Mexico
government infrastructure
A single sixteen-bit block cut into 77 separate announcements, more pieces than anything else carded in this range.
What it's used for
- A state government's network. 65,536 addresses across 77 IPv4 prefixes plus one IPv6 prefix,
2605:5940::/32, with two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Every prefix checked carries the netname
NM-STATE-GOVERNMENT, registered toState of New Mexico. - All of them sit inside
164.64, mostly/22s, with a handful of/20s and/21s. - The AS handle is recorded as
STATE-NM-, ending on a hyphen where the holder string readsSTATE-NM-US. - Eighteen addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
- The routing archive first saw this AS in 2009, long after the address space itself was allocated.
Interesting
- Seventy-seven announcements out of one range is not a routing requirement, it is an administrative map. A state network serves agencies, courts, colleges and county offices that each want their own block, and once every one of them is announced separately the routing table records the org chart.
- A handle ending in a hyphen is a field that was cut to a length limit rather than to a word. It has stayed that way ever since, because nothing checks handles once they exist.
- Two neighbours holding all 77 pieces. The complexity is entirely internal; the outside world sees a state that buys transit from two providers.

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 2026-10-26, 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: 446 networks and 1,852 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.
