Summary

Verizon Business

United States of America · AI-generated

business telecom legacy

The AS handle BELL-ATL is held by Verizon Business.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries business and telecommunications infrastructure, evidenced by the netname GTE-TELOPS and the registrant Verizon Business.
  • The AS announces a single IPv4 prefix (138.83.75.0/24) comprising 256 addresses, with 0 IPv6 prefixes.
  • With 1 observed neighbour, the low address-to-neighbour ratio suggests a small, isolated internal or legacy segment rather than a transit or large-scale access network.

Notable

  • The registrant Verizon Business aligns with the AS holder, though the netname GTE-TELOPS reflects historical lineage from GTE, a predecessor to Verizon.
  • The address inventory consists of a single /24 block, indicating a minimal footprint likely reserved for specific legacy services or internal operations.

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 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-20. 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.
