Summary
31173 Services
colo datacenter hosting
A Swedish data-center and network operator, 31173 Services AB, announcing as ESAB-AS. It owns and operates data centers in Malmö and Lund and runs an IP/MPLS network across northern and central Europe.
What it's used for
- Colocation, hosting, and network/transit services with Swedish/EU data residency, plus VPS/game-server hosting delivered by customers on its network.
Notable
- An IP here identifies 31173 as the host, not the operator of the hosted service.
- The network spans many PoPs from Stockholm toward Central Europe (Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Zurich), which is why it shows up as an upstream for other regional hosts.
Interesting
- The name "31173" reads as "ELITE" in leetspeak, reflecting its roots serving low-latency gaming and enthusiast hosting in the Nordic region.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
