Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Kookmin University
education university korea
The AS handle KOOKMIN-AS-KR is held by Kookmin University.
What it's used for
- The address space is registered under netnames
KORNET-KRandKREN-KR, indicating allocation through the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) for institutional use. - The AS announces 14,336 IPv4 addresses across 10 prefixes while maintaining only 1 observed neighbour, a ratio characteristic of an isolated institutional network rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All registrants are listed as
IRT-KRNIC-KR, which is the national registry for South Korea, rather than the university itself, reflecting standard national allocation practices. - The inventory consists of fragmented IPv4 blocks ranging from /20 to /24, with no IPv6 prefixes announced.
- The network has been observed in routing tables since 2003.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-13, 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: 440 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.
