Unclassified RIPE Educational/Research
Summary
Aydan Abrahams
research ipv6 uk personal
The AS handle AYDAN-AS is held by Aydan Abrahams.
What it's used for
- The space carries a single IPv6 prefix,
2a0d:f900::/48, with no IPv4 addresses announced. - One observed neighbour and one announced IPv6 prefix indicate a small, isolated network endpoint rather than a transit or access provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of research or educational activity associated with the individual operator, as indicated by the PeeringDB classification.
Notable
- The registry holder and AS handle both identify Aydan Abrahams, consistent with a personal or small-scale research network.
- The address inventory consists solely of a single /48 IPv6 block, typical of a minimal allocation for a private or academic project.

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: 452 networks and 1,853 prefixes, as published 2026-11-05. 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.
