Unclassified APNIC
Summary
Yahoo
business infrastructure corporate
YAHOO-ULS is operated by Yahoo-UK Limited.
What it's used for
- The address space carries corporate infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
et18-1.bas3-1-edg.lob.yahoo.comandet51.rsw6-1-edg.lob.yahoo.com, alongside genericunknown.yahoo.compointers. - The AS announces 768 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, with only 1 observed neighbour, indicating a small, self-contained internal estate rather than a transit or access network.
- Traffic from this AS consists of internal corporate endpoints and edge infrastructure supporting Yahoo's web services and operations in the United Kingdom.
Notable
- Registrants for both announced prefixes are listed as "Yahoo Europe Operations Department; Network Abuse" under the netname
YAHOONET, which aligns with the AS holder. - Yahoo-UK Limited is part of the broader Yahoo corporate structure, which has undergone significant ownership changes including its acquisition by Verizon and subsequent integration into Oath (now part of Verizon Media).
- The inventory is finely subdivided into two small IPv4 blocks and one IPv6 /48, consistent with a segmented internal corporate network.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-14, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-15. 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.
