AS2515 JPNIC - Japan Network Information Center
Unclassified APNIC Non-Profit
Summary
Japan Network Information Center (JPNIC)
legacy
JPNIC is the Japan Network Information Center, the non-profit body that coordinates IP address and AS number assignment for Japan in cooperation with APNIC.
What it's used for
- Operating the registry organization's own internet infrastructure and services.
Notable
- An internet coordination/registry body, not a commercial ISP or host. The low AS number reflects an early Japanese-internet allocation, fitting for the organization that helped administer Japan's early internet.

Reputation
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: 454 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-11-14. 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.
