Summary

Uninett (Norwegian Research Network)

Norway · AI-generated

education research legacy

Uninett, the Norwegian national research and education network (UNINETT) connecting universities and research institutions across Norway.

What it's used for

  • Backbone and connectivity for Norwegian universities, colleges, and research institutions (a national research and education network, or NREN).

Notable

  • A research/education network operator, not a commercial ISP.
  • The low AS number reflects an early allocation from the internet's first years, handed out roughly sequentially.

Interesting

  • Uninett has since been folded into Sikt, Norway's agency for shared services in education and research.

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: 432 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
