Unclassified RIPE
Summary
Pipe Networks
hosting business uk
PIPE-NET is operated by Pipe Networks LTD.
What it's used for
- The address space carries hosting and business infrastructure, evidenced by netnames such as
PIPE-STO,PIPE-FRA, andPIPE-EGHassociated with Pipe Networks LTD and PipeHost e.U. - The AS announces 5,632 IPv4 addresses across 13 prefixes and 6 IPv6 prefixes, while maintaining 56 observed neighbours, a ratio indicative of a transit or peering-heavy role rather than a pure access network.
- Traffic from this AS consists of web and API endpoints, server workloads, and business backhaul for Pipe Networks' hosting and connectivity services.
Notable
- Registrants for the majority of prefixes are listed as "Private Customer," while specific blocks like
157.173.3.0/24and157.173.7.0/24are explicitly registered to Pipe Networks LTD and Matteo Fruhwald trading as PipeHost e.U. - The address inventory is fragmented, including blocks registered to third parties such as Evolus IT Solutions GmbH and Khadamat Ertebati Pishkhan Arvin Chenaran Co.LLC, suggesting leased or multi-tenant space within the AS.

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.
