Summary

business corporate japan panasonic
MEI1 is operated by Panasonic Information Systems Co., Ltd.
What it's used for
- The address space carries corporate infrastructure, evidenced by netnames such as
PANA-NETandPANA-NET-CIDR-BLK-JPassociated with the registrantIRT-JPNIC-JP. - The AS announces 383232 IPv4 addresses across 50 prefixes, while maintaining only 1 observed neighbour, a ratio that indicates an internal corporate estate rather than a transit or access network.
Notable
- Registrants for the largest prefixes include
IRT-JPNIC-JPandJapan Network Information Center, which align with the announcer's identity as a Japanese corporate entity. - The address inventory is finely subdivided into multiple /16, /18, /19, /20, and /21 blocks, reflecting site-by-site segmentation typical of a large multinational corporation.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-15, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Reputation
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 1,781 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
