Unclassified RIPE
Summary
Online Consulting
business hosting enterprise
One block, two upstreams, and a record that has nothing else in it.
What it's used for
- A consultancy's network. A single IPv4 prefix announced from Switzerland, no IPv6, one thousand and twenty-four addresses, through two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The AS handle is the company name with the legal form removed and a hyphen inserted, and the netname is that same handle with the word for a network appended, so all three fields are the same two words wearing different suffixes.
- The block is registered to the company and a role contact for abuse, with no individual, no hostmaster and no second organisation.
- There is no IPv6 announcement at all, on a network that has been visible in routing since the earliest years of the collector's history.
- Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- Two upstreams and a thousand addresses is the shape of a company that hosts things for clients but never grew into a provider. The second connection exists so that the first one failing is an inconvenience rather than an outage.
- Records this bare are the majority of the routing table and almost never get written about. A network can be announced continuously for two decades and leave behind nothing but its own name spelled three slightly different ways.

Peering at a glance
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 2026-10-20, 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 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-21. 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.
