Summary
Burundi Backbone System
transit infrastructure burundi backbone
The AS handle BBSS is operated by Burundi Backbone System SM.
What it's used for
- The address space is registered under the netname
ORG-BBSS1-AFRINICwith registrants listed as "Burundi Backbone System SM; Administrative Team; IP and IT Team". - The AS announces 6144 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes and maintains 8 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a national transit or backbone provider role.
Notable
- All three announced prefixes share the same registrant and netname, confirming a unified corporate estate.
- Secondary sources identify the operator as an infrastructure company specializing in the design, construction, and operation of high-speed networks in Burundi.
- The inventory consists of three distinct IPv4 blocks: 102.134.96.0/20, 41.79.224.0/22, and 154.73.40.0/22, with no IPv6 prefixes announced.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-13, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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.
