Summary

isp telecom infrastructure
Every sampled address answered, including the ones at the top and bottom of each block that normally answer to nobody.
What it's used for
- A regional fibre provider's network. 14,080 addresses across 17 IPv4 prefixes plus one IPv6 prefix,
2604:900::/32, with three observed BGP neighbours. First seen in 2000.
Notable
- Netnames run
FLNET-17,FLNET-24,FLNET-35,FLNET-37andFLNET-41, all registered toFirstLight Networks, LLC, with blocks from the same allocation sharing a number. - Two
/24s carry the netnameWMGLLC, registered toWilmorite Management Group, LLC. - All eighteen sampled addresses returned a name, every one of the form
98-159-212-0.static.firstlight.net.
Interesting
- The sample always includes each block's first and last address, and here both answered:
176-115-178-0.static.firstlight.netand176-115-179-255.static.firstlight.net. A reverse zone generated straight from the address arithmetic makes no exception for the network and broadcast addresses, because the generator has no idea they are special. - The netname suffixes count allocations rather than describing them. Numbers as far apart as seventeen and forty-one on space held by one company are a ledger of separate requests made over many years, each filed as it arrived.
- A property management company's two
/24s sitting inside a fibre provider's announcements is a business customer whose address space stayed in its own name while the routing moved. - Three neighbours and a first sighting in 2000 describe a network that has been in the table since the table was young, and has never needed many ways out.

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: 443 networks and 1,784 prefixes, as published 2026-10-19. 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.
