Unclassified RIPE
Summary
France-IX L3 Services
ixp transit infrastructure france
The AS handle FRANCE-IX-L3P is held by France IX Services SASU.
What it's used for
- The address space carries infrastructure for the France-IX Internet Exchange Point, as indicated by netnames
FR-IX-20070530andFR-IX-20190827and registrants "FranceIX Admin; France IX Services SASU". - With 768 IPv4 addresses and 2 IPv6 prefixes announced against 174 observed neighbours, the high neighbour-to-address ratio indicates a transit or exchange role rather than an access network.
- Traffic from this AS consists of routing infrastructure and peering sessions for the France-IX IXP, facilitating interconnection between network operators in Europe.
Notable
- Registrants for both announced prefixes match the AS holder, France IX Services SASU, confirming consistent ownership.
- The address inventory is small and finely subdivided into two IPv4 prefixes and two IPv6 prefixes, consistent with an internal corporate estate for IXP operations rather than a large consumer base.

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: 448 networks and 1,851 prefixes, as published 2026-11-04. 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.
