Unclassified RIPE
Summary
MTS PJSC
telecom residential mobile backbone
The AS handle KANAL7-AS is held by MTS PJSC.
What it's used for
- The address space carries MTS backbone and regional access traffic, evidenced by netnames
RU-MTU-20050318,RU-KANAL7, andB2B-FIX-SHPD-202601, and reverse DNS entries such ashost-85-117-72-0.bb.norilsk.mts.ru. - The AS announces 26,880 IPv4 addresses across 11 prefixes and 6 IPv6 prefixes, with only 1 observed neighbour, indicating a large-scale access or backbone network rather than a transit provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of subscriber eyeballs, mobile data, and enterprise backhaul for MTS's operations in the Norilsk region and broader Russian Federation.
Notable
- Registrants align with the announcer, listing
MTS backbone NOC,Overta Internet Center, andMR-SIB-MTS Administrationas primary contacts. - The address inventory is finely subdivided into multiple /22 and /23 blocks under the
RU-KANAL7netname, reflecting site-by-site segmentation within the corporate estate.

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: 436 networks and 1,771 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.
