Summary
Asia Pacific Network Information Centre (APNIC)
research legacy
APNIC-COLO — an infrastructure ASN belonging to APNIC, the Regional Internet Registry for the Asia-Pacific. It is used for APNIC's colocated and remote facility sites rather than for customers.
What it's used for
- Announcing APNIC's own service infrastructure hosted at remote and colocated sites, including presence at internet exchange points.
- Supporting registry services and measurement infrastructure operated by the organisation.
Notable
- APNIC is one of the five RIRs; it allocates IP addresses and AS numbers throughout the Asia-Pacific region, so it is the very body that hands out numbers like this one.
- The ASN announces only a small block — this is operational infrastructure, not a network selling connectivity.
Interesting
- Registry infrastructure ASNs like this one carry very little traffic but sit at the root of how everything else on the regional internet gets numbered.

Reputation
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.
