AS41047 NL-MLAB MLAB Open Source Community
Unclassified ARIN Non-Profit
Summary
MLaB NL
transit non-profit community
NL-MLAB is operated by MLaB NL, a non-profit open source community network.
What it's used for
- The space carries a single IPv6 prefix,
2a0e:a6c0::/30, with no IPv4 addresses announced. - With 44 observed neighbours and a minimal address inventory, the high neighbour-to-prefix ratio indicates a transit or peering role rather than an access network.
- As a non-profit community network, the traffic consists of inter-AS routing and peering sessions for the MLaB community.
Notable
- The registry holder is listed as Bart Vrancken, while the AS handle identifies the MLAB Open Source Community.
- The address inventory is extremely small, consisting of only one IPv6 prefix and no IPv4 space.

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 1,773 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
