Unclassified AFRINIC
Summary
AfriNIC
registry infrastructure afnic
AS36900 is operated by AfriNIC, the African Network Information Center.
What it's used for
- The address space is registered under the netname
ORG-AFNC1-AFRINICwith the registrant listed as "AfriNIC TEAM; African Network Information Center - (AfriNIC) Ltd". - The AS announces a single IPv4 prefix,
41.220.48.0/20, comprising 4096 addresses, with no IPv6 prefixes in inventory. - With only 1 observed neighbour in RIS, the low neighbour count relative to the address block suggests an internal or infrastructure role rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- The RDAP registrant matches the known identity of the operator, confirming the space is held directly by AfriNIC.
- The inventory consists of a single contiguous /20 block, indicating a focused internal allocation rather than a diverse customer base.

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 1,782 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.
