What it's used for
- The address space carries mobile subscriber traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries pointing to
dynamic.isp.ooredoo.omand netnames such asNAWRAS-NETandOM-QATARITELECOM-20090429. - The network announces 296,192 IPv4 addresses across 208 prefixes and 77 IPv6 prefixes, while maintaining 67 observed neighbours, a ratio consistent with a large access network rather than a transit provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of mobile subscriber eyeballs, supporting prepaid and postpaid GSM services, VoIP media, and data access for Ooredoo Oman customers.

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: 440 networks and 1,773 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.
