Summary

Zimbabwe Open University

Zimbabwe · AI-generated

education university distance zimbabwe

The AS handle ZOU is held by Zimbabwe Open University.

What it's used for

  • The space carries the university's internal network, identified by the netname ORG-ZOU1-AFRINIC and registrant ZIMBABWE OPEN UNIVERSITY.
  • The inventory consists of 256 IPv4 addresses in a single /24 prefix and 1 IPv6 prefix, with only 2 observed neighbours, indicating a small, self-contained institutional network rather than a transit or access provider.

Notable

  • The RDAP registrant ZIMBABWE OPEN UNIVERSITY matches the AS holder and the netname ORG-ZOU1-AFRINIC, confirming consistent ownership.
  • The address inventory is minimal, comprising a single IPv4 block and one IPv6 prefix, typical for a specific campus or administrative segment of a distance education institution.

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 1,781 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.
