Summary
Orange Burkina Faso
mobile residential isp africa
The AS handle Orange- is held by Orange Burkina Faso.
What it's used for
- The address space carries mobile and fixed-line telecommunications traffic, consistent with the operator's role as a national telecom provider offering mobile telephony and internet services.
- The AS announces 228,608 IPv4 addresses across 63 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, with 7 observed neighbours, a ratio indicative of an access or eyeball network serving end-users rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- Registrants for the largest 102.x.x.x prefixes are listed as unknown, while the 38.170.32.0/19 and 38.170.64.0/19 blocks are registered to Cogent Communications, LLC with the netname COGENT-A.
- The operator was formerly Airtel Burkina Faso, which was acquired by Orange and rebranded as Orange Burkina Faso.
- The inventory consists of a mix of large /17 and /18 blocks in the 102.178.0.0/15 range and smaller /19 to /21 blocks in the 38.170.0.0/15 range.

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 1,778 prefixes, as published 2026-10-20. 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.
