Summary
Kentucky Community and Technical College System
education business kctcs
The AS handle KCTCS-INTERNET2 is operated by Kentucky Community and Technical College System.
What it's used for
- The address space carries institutional infrastructure for the college system, evidenced by reverse DNS entries like
zone55-254.kctcs.eduand netnames such asKCTCS-NET. - The AS announces 16,128 IPv4 addresses across 7 prefixes with only 2 observed neighbours, a ratio that indicates an internal corporate estate rather than a transit or access network.
Notable
- Registrants for the majority of prefixes are consistent with the announcer, listing "Kentucky Community and Technical College System" or "KCTCS", though one /24 block is registered to "ALLTEL Communications Internal Use".
- The address inventory is primarily composed of the 216.69.0.0/16 range, subdivided into several blocks, with a smaller portion in the 67.140.0.0/16 range.

Internet exchanges
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 2026-10-19, 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: 442 networks and 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-20. 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.
