Summary
Walmart
retail corporate business internal

What it's used for
- The address space carries internal corporate infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS entries pointing to
walmart.comand netnames likeWAL-MART-6. - With 66,560 IPv4 addresses announced across 33 prefixes and only 4 observed neighbours, the ratio indicates a large internal corporate estate rather than an access or transit network.
Notable

WAL-MART-6, aligning with the AS holder. - The company changed its legal name from Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. to Walmart Inc. in February 2018.

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 2026-11-04, 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: 452 networks and 1,853 prefixes, as published 2026-11-05. 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.
