Unclassified RIPE
Summary
Layer23
hosting business netherlands datacenter
The AS handle LAYER23 is held by Layer23 atom86 BV.
What it's used for
- The address space carries datacenter and hosting infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
hosted-by.layer23.nlandnetwork-by.layer23.nl, alongside core router identifiers likege-0-0-0.cr1.ams-nkf.layer23.nl. - The AS announces 3584 IPv4 addresses across 8 prefixes and 2 IPv6 prefixes, with 12 observed neighbours. This ratio of moderate address space to a limited number of peers indicates a hosting or business network rather than a large-scale transit provider.
Notable
- Registrants are consistent with the announcer, primarily listing
Layer23 NOCandatom86 BV, with one prefix registered toKiobi B.V.. - The operator is part of the OctoNona group, which acquired Layer23, Atom86, and A2B Internet to expand its pan-European datacenter interconnect services.
- The inventory consists of a mix of /22, /23, and /24 blocks, including a legacy netname
ATOM86on several prefixes, reflecting the integration of the Atom86 brand into the Layer23 entity.

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: 442 networks and 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-17. 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.
