Unclassified RIPE Route Server
Summary
UA-IX
infrastructure isp transit measurement
The AS handle begins with this network's own number, written out in full.
What it's used for
- A national internet exchange point's own network. One IPv4
/22announced from Ukraine, no IPv6, one thousand and twenty-four addresses, across twenty-seven observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The AS handle starts with the letters and digits of this very AS number, then a two-letter legal form abbreviation, then the exchange's full name and its short form.
- The holder record keeps the quotation marks and brackets from the organisation's registered name; the handle drops both.
- Twenty-seven neighbours behind one thousand addresses is the ratio of a meeting point rather than a network with customers.
- The single block carries the country code, the exchange's short name and an allocation date.
- Routing records first show this number about fifteen years after the numbers around it appeared.
- Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- An exchange point needs almost no address space of its own. A thousand addresses covers the switching fabric, the route servers and the management network, and nothing else.
- Putting the AS number inside the handle is redundant, but here it is the only field that ties the routing identity to the organisation without a lookup.
- A number this low first appearing in routing so recently means it sat unused for years before the exchange took it up.

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 2026-10-18, 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 1,784 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.
