Unclassified APNIC
Summary
Korea Institute of Fusion Energy
research government fusion kstar
KFE-AS-KR is the autonomous system for Korea Institute of Fusion Energy.
What it's used for
- The address space carries the institute's internal research network, identified by the netname
KREONet-KRacross all four announced prefixes. - With 2304 IPv4 addresses announced across 4 prefixes and only 2 observed neighbours, the ratio indicates a small, self-contained research network rather than a transit or access provider.
Notable
- All registrants are listed as
IRT-KRNIC-KR, which is the national registry for Korea, consistent with the announcer being a Korean government research institute. - The operator was formerly known as the National Fusion Research Institute (NFRI) before being renamed to the Korea Institute of Fusion Energy (KFE).
- The inventory consists of four distinct IPv4 blocks with no IPv6 prefixes announced, reflecting a legacy IPv4-only infrastructure for a specialized scientific facility.

Interconnection
Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Transit providers
1 upstream, 0 downstream and 1 adjacent networks observed; most-used upstreams first.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-14, 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 1,772 prefixes, as published 2026-10-15. 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.
