AS14702 INL-ASN2
Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Idaho National Laboratory
research government infrastructure
Two sixteen-bit blocks, no smaller pieces, and the same organisation filed under two different names.
What it's used for
- A national laboratory's network. 131,072 addresses across exactly two IPv4 prefixes,
134.20.0.0/16and141.221.0.0/16, plus one IPv6 prefix,2620:0:2b80::/44. - Two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Both blocks register to
Idaho National Laboratory. - The netnames are
INLon one andIDAHO-NATIONAL-LABORATORYon the other. - Six addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- Two prefixes for 131,072 addresses is a network that has never had to explain itself to the routing table. Nothing is split out, nothing is announced separately, which means every part of this laboratory reaches the internet the same way.
- One organisation, two netnames, one an abbreviation of the other. The registry has no rule about which form to use, so the answer depends on who filled in the form and when. Any attempt to count organisations by netname will read this as two.
- A research network of this size with nothing answering a reverse lookup keeps its published surface to a minimum. The address space is large; the amount of it that will tell you anything is zero.
- The sample here is six addresses rather than the usual eighteen, because the sampler takes a few per prefix and there are only two prefixes to take them from.

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 2026-10-21, 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: 442 networks and 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-22. 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.
