Summary
APRICOT Conferences
conference apnic temporary networking
The AS handle APRICOT-APNIC-ASN is held by APNIC (Asia Pacific Network Information Centre) for use at conferences in the AP region.
What it's used for
- The address space carries conference networking infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
0.148.dhcp.conference.apricot.netand255.151.dhcp.conference.apricot.net. - The inventory consists of 4096 IPv4 addresses in a single /20 prefix and one IPv6 /32 prefix, with 0 observed neighbours, indicating a self-contained, non-transit network used for event-specific connectivity.
Notable
- The registrant for the announced prefix
220.247.144.0/20is listed asAsia Pacific Network Information Centre; IRT-APNIC-AP, which aligns with the AS holder's identity as an APNIC resource. - The address inventory is a single contiguous IPv4 block and a single IPv6 prefix, typical of a temporary or dedicated allocation for a specific organizational function rather than a broad commercial service.

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: 447 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-10-30. 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.
