Summary
VNNIC
registry infrastructure vietnam nix
VNIX-AS-VN is operated by VNNIC (Vietnam Internet Network Information Center).
What it's used for
- The address space is registered under the netname
VNNIC-NETwith registrantIRT-VNNIC-AP, indicating it is the national registry's own infrastructure. - The AS announces 1024 IPv4 addresses and 1 IPv6 prefix, with 5 observed neighbours. This low neighbour count relative to the address inventory suggests a limited transit or peering role, consistent with a registry or NIX infrastructure rather than a large access network.
Notable
- The registrant
IRT-VNNIC-APaligns with the announcer, confirming the space belongs to the national registry. - VNNIC is the National Internet Registry of Vietnam, established in 2000, managing the country's internet resources and operating the VNIX-HCM route servers.
- The inventory consists of a single IPv4 prefix
117.122.116.0/22and one IPv6 prefix2001:dc8:3000::/48, representing a compact, dedicated estate for registry operations.

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 2026-10-17. 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.
