Summary

Telekom Networks Malawi

Malawi · AI-generated

mobile telecom residential business

TNM is the autonomous system for Telekom Networks Malawi Ltd.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries mobile and fixed-line telecommunications traffic, evidenced by the registrant TELEKOM NETWORKS MALAWI LTD and netname ORG-TNML1-AFRINIC across the inventory.
  • The AS announces 136192 IPv4 addresses across 61 prefixes and 2 IPv6 prefixes, with 8 observed neighbours; this high address-to-neighbour ratio indicates an access network serving end-users rather than a transit provider.

Notable

  • Registrants for the largest prefixes, including 102.71.0.0/16 and 102.70.128.0/17, consistently match the announcer TELEKOM NETWORKS MALAWI LTD.
  • The address inventory is dominated by the 102.70.0.0/16 and 102.71.0.0/16 blocks, with the 102.70.0.0/16 space finely subdivided into numerous /21, /22, and /23 prefixes.
  • The operator is a subsidiary of Press Corporation Limited and is the oldest telecommunications company in Malawi, established in 1995.

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: 431 networks and 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. 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.
