Summary
xTom GmbH
hosting transit legacy
XTOM is xTom GmbH, the German arm of the xTom group — an IP transit, network, and hosting provider based in Düsseldorf.
What it's used for
- IP transit and network services, with upstreams including Telia, Orange, and Tata, and peering at DE-CIX (Frankfurt, Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Munich), AMS-IX, LINX, LocIX, and FRYS-IX.
- Hosting and colocation infrastructure for the group's customers.
Notable
- The aut-num object publishes a full BGP community scheme — per-upstream tagging, prepend controls, selective announcement, and a
3214:666blackhole community — which is the signature of a transit provider rather than an end-user network. - This is a hosting and carrier address footprint: the roughly 22,000 IPv4 addresses sit in data centres, not on subscriber lines.
Interesting
- The low AS number was reissued to a modern holder — xTom's RIPE registration for it dates from 2015, so there is no early-internet pedigree behind this operator's use of AS3214.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
