Summary
Education Service Center Region 12
education k12 network usa
ESC-REGION12 is operated by Education Service Center Region 12.
What it's used for
- The address space carries educational network traffic, evidenced by the netname
EDLINK12and the registrant name "Education Service Center Region 12" across all announced prefixes. - The AS announces 2560 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes with only 1 observed neighbour, a ratio that indicates an access or eyeball network serving local educational institutions rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All registrants for the announced prefixes agree with the announcer, consistently listing "Education Service Center Region 12" as the administrative entity.
- The address inventory consists of three IPv4 blocks: 206.132.128.0/21, 206.132.140.0/24, and 206.132.143.0/24, all located in the United States.

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: 448 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-10-29. 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.
