Summary

Five brands across six blocks, and two of the contacts are the bare words admin and support.
What it's used for
- A provider. Six IPv4 prefixes and one IPv6 block announced from Ireland, twenty-six thousand six hundred and twenty-four addresses, across twelve observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Three blocks carry a netname built from a country code, a brand that matches neither the holder nor the handle, and a date, with dates spanning seven years. They are registered to the holder company and to a maintainer role named for the handle brand.
- Two more use a fourth brand and belong to a separate limited company, whose contacts are listed as the single words for administration and for support, with no organisation attached to either.
- The sixth uses a fifth brand and belongs to a third limited company entirely.
- So the record names three companies and five brands, none of which is the name in the holder field.
- Eighteen addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- A provider that grows by buying small competitors ends up announcing their blocks under their old registrations, because transferring a block is paperwork and announcing it is a configuration line. The routing merges long before the records do.
- Contacts named only admin or support are the sign of a very small operation, where the person reading the mailbox is whoever is nearest to it.

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: 432 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
