Summary

Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council

United Kingdom · AI-generated

government municipal local-authority

The AS handle DUDLEY-MBC is held by Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council.

What it's used for

  • The space carries municipal infrastructure, evidenced by the netname DUDLEY and the reverse DNS record eis.dudley.gov.uk.
  • The AS announces 256 IPv4 addresses across 1 prefix and 1 IPv6 prefix, with only 1 observed neighbour, indicating a small, self-contained internal network rather than a transit or access provider.
  • Traffic from this AS consists of internal government services and administrative endpoints for the local authority in the West Midlands, England.

Notable

  • The registrant for 193.105.48.0/24 is listed as Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council; Jisc CSIRT Admin, which aligns with the announcer.
  • The address inventory is minimal, consisting of a single /24 block and a single /48 IPv6 prefix, typical of a small local government entity.

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: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
