AS16486 WEYERHAEUSER - Weyerhaeuser Company
Unclassified ARIN Enterprise
Summary
Weyerhaeuser Company
enterprise business infrastructure
The handle spells the company out in full; the netname reduces it to six characters that name a department instead.
What it's used for
- A forest products company's network. One IPv4 prefix announced from the United States, no IPv6, one thousand and twenty-four addresses, through one observed BGP neighbour.
Notable
- The AS handle is the company name written out, twelve letters and no abbreviation. It is one of the few handles here that a reader can pronounce without decoding it.
- The netname does the opposite: four letters cut from the word for a corporation, two more that match no word anywhere in the record, and a numeral. The company's own name is absent from it.
- The numeral is a two, so somewhere there was or should have been a first block under the same scheme. Only this one is here.
- The block is registered to the company under its full legal name, with no extra contact and no abuse role.
- Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- A netname that describes an internal department rather than a company is written by whoever runs the network, for whoever else runs the network. It is legible inside the building and opaque outside it, which is a reasonable trade until somebody outside needs to know whose addresses these are.
- One thousand addresses and a single upstream at a company this size means almost everything is private. The public footprint is a rounding error against the organisation behind 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: 449 networks and 1,846 prefixes, as published 2026-11-03. 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.
