AS15276 ZENDA-ASN - Zenda Telephone
Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Zenda Telephone
telecom isp business
A rural telephone company with one block, one upstream and nothing published.
What it's used for
- A small telephone company's network. A single IPv4
/23announced from the United States, no IPv6, and one observed BGP neighbour.
Notable
- The netname is the company's two initials and a number, one of the shortest labels in this range.
- The registrant and the AS handle both name the company, with the handle appending the abbreviation for autonomous system.
- Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
- Five hundred and twelve addresses, announced as a single route.
- The block sits in space that predates the modern allocation policies, which is consistent with a telephone company that has held it since it first connected.
Interesting
- One upstream means this network has an AS number for portability rather than for redundancy. If the provider fails, the block goes with it; what the number buys is the ability to change providers without renumbering subscribers.
- Five hundred and twelve addresses is the size of a village exchange. It suggests subscribers behind shared addressing rather than one address each.
- Nothing answering in reverse is unusual for a subscriber network, where providers normally generate names from the address automatically. Here nobody set that up, or it was switched off.

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: 454 networks and 1,847 prefixes, as published 2026-11-11. 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.
