Unclassified AFRINIC
Summary
Discovery Health
business healthcare corporate
DHN-BGP-AS2002 is operated by Discovery Health, South Africa's largest medical scheme administrator.
What it's used for
- The address space is registered under the netname
ORG-DH1-AFRINICfor Discovery Health, indicating a corporate internal network rather than a public access or transit provider. - The AS announces 1792 IPv4 addresses across 4 prefixes, with 18 observed neighbours. This ratio of a small, specific address inventory against a moderate number of peering partners is consistent with an internal corporate estate requiring connectivity to various service providers and partners, rather than a large-scale residential or transit network.
Notable
- Three of the four announced prefixes are registered to Discovery Health, while the prefix
206.185.3.0/24is registered to Cogent Communications, LLC under the netnameCOGENT-206-185-1-16, suggesting a leased or historically allocated block. - The address inventory is compact, consisting of one /22 and three /24 blocks, all located in South Africa.

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 1,778 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.
