Summary
Etisalat Benin
mobile telecom west-africa
ETISALAT-AS is operated by Etisalat Benin, the Beninese mobile subsidiary of the Etisalat Group.
What it's used for

ORG-EB1-AFRINICforETISALAT BENIN, consistent with a mobile operator's infrastructure. - The AS announces 2048 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes and maintains 5 observed neighbours, a ratio indicative of an access network serving end-users rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All three announced prefixes (
41.138.88.0/22,156.0.212.0/23,156.0.214.0/23) are registered toETISALAT BENIN, aligning the registrants with the AS holder. - Etisalat Benin operates under the Moov brand in Benin, following the reassignment of the Telecel operating license to Etisalat in 2007.
- The inventory consists of three IPv4 prefixes with no announced IPv6 space, reflecting a traditional mobile network footprint.

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: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
