Summary

CHOUSTONfor the City of Houston, indicating a municipal government network. - The AS announces 3584 IPv4 addresses across 6 prefixes, with 4 observed neighbours, suggesting a self-contained internal network rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All registrants in the RDAP data match the announcer, consistently listing "City of Houston" as the holder.
- The address inventory consists of six contiguous or near-contiguous blocks within the 204.235.224.0/20 range, typical of a single organizational allocation.

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-27, 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: 447 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
