One netname says only the word new and which version of the address protocol it holds.
What it's used for
- A small provider's network. Three IPv4 prefixes and one IPv6 prefix announced from the United States, two thousand three hundred and four addresses, through one observed BGP neighbour.
Notable
- One netname repeats the AS handle exactly: the company name and its industry word joined by a hyphen. That is the one place in the record where the registry and the routing label agree.
- A second netname is the word new followed by a version marker for the address protocol, with no company, place or counter in it at all.
- The third is a three-letter code and a number. The code reads as a city or airport abbreviation and appears nowhere else in the record.
- All three blocks are registered to the holder, so the mismatched labels are internal habit rather than a sign of resale.
- Nine addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- A netname meaning new is written on the day space is allocated and describes the block only relative to what came before. Once a fourth block arrives, the label is worse than nothing.
- Three blocks under one holder with three naming schemes is a company small enough that each allocation was handled by whoever was free that week.
- One upstream for the whole announcement means a single link decides whether any of it is reachable.

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 1,773 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
