Summary
UniNet (Inter-University Network, Thailand)
education research nren legacy
UNINET-AS-AP is UniNet, Thailand's inter-university network. The APNIC record lists the holder as the Office of Information Technology Administration for Educational Development under the Ministry of University Affairs, the government body that grew into Thailand's higher-education ministry.
What it's used for
- The national research and education backbone for Thailand: it links public and private universities, and other education institutions, to each other and to the wider internet.
Notable
- A government-run NREN rather than a commercial ISP. Addresses in this space belong to campuses, so they read as academic, not residential.
- The footprint is large, over a hundred thousand addresses, because it is aggregating many universities under one AS.

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 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. 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.
