Summary

isp business nz wan
SOLARIX-INTERNET-AS-AP is operated by Solarix Networks Limited.
What it's used for
- The address space carries a mix of corporate and institutional customers, evidenced by netnames such as
ICONZ-NZ(Internet Company of New Zealand Limited),TWOR-NZ(Te Wananga o Raukawa), andOXYGENITLIMITED-NZ(Oxygen IT Limited). - With 9,216 IPv4 addresses and 33 IPv6 prefixes against 36 observed neighbours, the ratio suggests a business-focused access or mid-tier ISP role rather than a large-scale transit provider.
Notable
- Registrants are largely consistent with the announcer, with most prefixes registered to
Solarix Networks Limited, though some blocks are held by distinct entities likeEDMI NZ LimitedandMeanwhile Ltd. - Secondary sources indicate the operator is now known as Atturra Managed Services, having previously operated under names including Plan B, ICONZ, and Turnstone.
- The inventory includes a significant block from the
202.36.0.0/16range, originally associated with ICONZ, reflecting the company's acquisition history.

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: 431 networks and 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. 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.
