Summary

The only IPv6 announcement is the very last /48 of its range, with every group set to its maximum.
What it's used for
- A regional carrier's network. One IPv4
/24and one IPv6/48announced from Germany, two hundred and fifty-six addresses, across ten observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- That IPv6 prefix ends in a group of four maximum digits before the double colon, which places it at the very top of the range it was carved from.
- The rest of that range is not announced from this number at all, so what is visible here is one corner of a larger allocation.
- The netname is a country code, the brand in capitals, and the date
20180710. - The block lists three contacts: the company, a network operations role using a shortened brand, and an abuse role using the mixed-case form, so the same name is written three ways in one record.
- The AS handle is the brand with the three letters for a network, then a square name and a house number.
- Ten upstreams for two hundred and fifty-six addresses, which is far more transit than the size needs.
Interesting
- Networks usually carve from the bottom of a range upward, so the top is left for later. Announcing the very top block and nothing else is what infrastructure addressing looks like: the range's own routers and management take the far end, out of the way of anything that will be sold.
- Ten neighbours against one route says the number exists for peering, not for the addresses.

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 2026-10-18, 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: 443 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.
