Autonomous system
AS17170 MCCAINFOODS - McCain Foods Limited
Unclassified ARIN NSP
Summary
McCain Foods
business corporate food canada
MCCAINFOODS is the autonomous system for McCain Foods Limited.
What it's used for
- The address space carries internal corporate infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS entries like
ip-207179132064.mccain.caand netnamesMFL-51,MCCAIN-CA, andMCCAIN2-CA. - The AS announces 1536 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes with only 3 observed neighbours, indicating a small, self-contained corporate network rather than a transit or access provider.
Notable
- Registrants align with the announcer, listing "McCain Foods Limited" and "McCain Foods Ltd" for all prefixes, with "Bell Aliant" also listed for the 207.179.132.0/24 block.
- The address inventory consists of three distinct IPv4 blocks: a /22 and two /24s, all located in Canada, with no IPv6 prefixes announced.

Interconnection
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 2026-11-05, 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: 454 networks and 1,854 prefixes, as published 2026-11-06. 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.
