Unclassified AFRINIC
Summary
Liberia Internet Exchange Point Association
exchange peering infrastructure liberia
The AS handle Liberia-IXP-Peering is held by Liberia Internet Exchange Point Association.
What it's used for
- The address space carries the operational infrastructure for Liberia's first and only Internet Exchange Point (LIXP), as indicated by the netname
ORG-LIEP1-AFRINICand the registrant identity. - The inventory consists of a single IPv4 prefix, 196.49.16.0/24, comprising 256 addresses, with no announced IPv6 prefixes.
- With only 1 observed neighbour in the routing system, the low neighbour count relative to the address block suggests a focused role in facilitating peering and exchange traffic rather than providing broad transit or access services.
Notable
- The RDAP registrant for the announced prefix matches the AS holder, confirming the Liberia Internet Exchange Point Association as the consistent owner of the address space.
- The address inventory is minimal, consisting of a single /24 block, which aligns with the specific functional requirement of an exchange point rather than a large-scale ISP or hosting 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: 447 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
