Summary

China Unicom Guangdong

China · AI-generated

residential mobile telecom china

CHINA169-GZ is the autonomous system for China Unicom in Guangdong province.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries residential and mobile traffic for the Guangdong region, evidenced by netnames such as UNICOM-GD and UNICOM-GDDG.
  • With 2,657,024 IPv4 addresses announced across 487 prefixes and only 3 observed neighbours, the high address-to-neighbour ratio indicates a large access network rather than a transit provider.

Notable

  • Registrants are consistent with the announcer, primarily IRT-CU-CN for the UNICOM-GD netnames, with one prefix registered to CNCGROUP GD.
  • The inventory includes a mix of /15, /16, and /17 blocks, including large allocations like 27.42.0.0/15 and 58.252.0.0/15, alongside 3,441 IPv6 prefixes.

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.

1 DROP match Announced space overlapping the DROP prefix list.

Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 431 networks and 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.

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.
