AS15117 ANHEUSER-BUSCH
Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Anheuser-Busch
business enterprise
The registrant field names the same company twice, once with its corporate form and once without.
What it's used for
- A brewer's network. Nine IPv4 prefixes announced from the United States, no IPv6, and two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Every resolved block carries a registrant field holding the company name twice, joined with a semicolon, differing only by the corporate form on the first copy.
- The netnames are
BUSCHandBUSCH2, a shortened form of the hyphenated company name with a counter added to the second. - Eight of the nine prefixes sit inside
170.100, split into pieces from a/22down to/24blocks, with one unrelated/19alongside. - Eighteen addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- A field containing one organisation listed twice is what happens when a contact record and an organisation record hold the same name and something concatenates both without checking. It is the same defect seen on other holders in this range, and it means an exact-match search for the company name fails against a field that contains it twice over.
- Splitting one range into eight announcements while publishing no reverse names is an inward-facing network: the routing detail exists for the operator's own path selection, and nothing about the addresses is offered to anyone looking in.
- Two upstreams for twelve thousand addresses is thin for an enterprise of this size.

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 2026-10-15, 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 1,781 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.
