AS20343 PEPPERDINE - Pepperdine University
Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Pepperdine University
education university business
The AS handle PEPPERDINE is held by Pepperdine University.
What it's used for
- The address space is registered under the netname
PEPNETfor Pepperdine University, indicating a dedicated institutional network for the university's campus operations. - The AS announces 65,536 IPv4 addresses across 9 prefixes, all within the 137.159.0.0/16 range, while maintaining only 4 observed routing neighbours. This high address-to-neighbour ratio is characteristic of an internal corporate or educational estate rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All nine announced prefixes share the same registrant, Pepperdine University, and the netname
PEPNET, confirming a unified and consistent ownership structure across the entire inventory. - The address inventory is finely subdivided into nine distinct prefixes, ranging from a /17 down to individual /24 blocks, which suggests site-by-site segmentation or logical division of the university's internal network infrastructure.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-31, 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: 447 networks and 1,843 prefixes, as published 2026-11-01. 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.
