Unclassified AFRINIC Non-Profit
Summary
ISPA SA
association advocacy non-profit south-africa
DINX is operated by ISPA SA, the Internet Service Providers' Association of South Africa.
What it's used for
- The address space carries association infrastructure, evidenced by the netname
ORG-IS32-AFRINICand registrantINX Sysadmin; ISPA SA. - The AS announces 256 IPv4 addresses across 1 prefix and 1 IPv6 prefix, with 6 observed neighbours, indicating a small-scale internal network for the association's own operations rather than transit or large-scale access.
- Traffic from this AS consists of administrative and advocacy-related communications for the ICT industry body, not subscriber eyeballs or commercial service delivery.
Notable
- Registrants
INX SysadminandISPA SAalign with the announcer, confirming the space is held by the association itself. - The address inventory is minimal, consisting of a single /24 block and a single /48 IPv6 prefix, typical for a non-profit industry body rather than a service provider.

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.
