Summary
Yahoo Holdings
media hosting infrastructure
The same netname as another number in the run, but a different site code in every hostname.
What it's used for
- One of a run of numbers a large web company uses for its edge sites. 768 IPv4 addresses across two prefixes, one IPv6 prefix, and one observed BGP neighbour.
Notable
- Both
69.147.86.0/23and69.147.66.0/24carry the netnameA-YAHOO-US5, which also appears under a different AS in the same run. - All six sampled addresses returned a name, three of them router interfaces.
- Those are
et18-1.bas3-1-edg.daa.yahoo.com,et51.rsw6-1-edg.daa.yahoo.comandet16-1.bas4-1-edg.daa.yahoo.com. - One is a serving name,
e7.ycpi.daa.yahoo.com.
Interesting
- Two of those interface names appear under other numbers in this run with only the site code changed, and the third adds a fourth device to the pattern. The template is fixed and the site is the variable, so knowing one site's names is close to knowing every site's.
- A netname shared across two separate autonomous systems means the registry sees one allocation where routing sees two independent networks. The address paperwork was done once, centrally; the routing was arranged site by site.
- The serving name is numbered differently at each location too, and it sits in a block announced alongside the routers. The machines answering requests and the equipment carrying them share the same small range.
- One upstream is the point rather than a weakness: an edge site is meant to be reached from nearby, and a second path would defeat the arrangement.

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 1,781 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
