Summary

Tanzania Education And Research Network

Tanzania, United Republic of · AI-generated

education research network tanzania

TERNET is operated by Tanzania Education And Research Network.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries infrastructure for Tanzanian higher education and research institutions, as indicated by the registrant name and the netname ORG-TEAR1-AFRINIC.
  • The AS announces 32768 IPv4 addresses across 32 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, with 5 observed neighbours, implying a role focused on connecting specific institutional sites rather than providing general transit.

Notable

  • Registrants for the majority of the largest prefixes align with the announcer, identified as Tanzania Education And Research Network, though one prefix (41.93.40.0/21) shows unknown registrant and netname.
  • The address inventory is finely subdivided into numerous /22, /23, and /24 blocks within the 41.93.0.0/16 range, consistent with an internal corporate or institutional estate segmented by site.

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: 436 networks and 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
