Summary
Swiss Federation (FOITT)
government federal transit infrastructure
SWISSGOV is the autonomous system for the Swiss Federation, represented by the Federal Office for Information and Communication Technology (FOITT).
What it's used for
- The address space carries federal government infrastructure, evidenced by netnames such as
KOM-BV,SWISSFED, andCH-SWISSGOV-20110727, all registered to theBundesamt fuer Informatik und Telekommunikation BIT. - The AS announces 135168 IPv4 addresses across 4 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, while maintaining 54 observed neighbours; this ratio of moderate address space against a high neighbour count indicates a transit or interconnection role rather than a pure access network.
Notable
- All registrants in the pack align with the announcer, consistently listing the
Administration of LIR ch.swissgov of FOITTand theSwiss Federation represented by FOITT. - The inventory consists of two /16 blocks (
131.102.0.0/16,162.23.0.0/16) and two /21 blocks (149.126.48.0/21,193.5.216.0/21), alongside a single /32 IPv6 prefix (2a07:2900::/32).

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: 442 networks and 1,781 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
