Unclassified ARIN
Summary
CoMPAS
municipal cable residential government
COMPAS is operated by CoMPAS, the municipally-owned cable utility of the City of Morganton, North Carolina.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential cable access traffic, evidenced by the reverse DNS record
cmts2-cpe1-254.compascable.netwhich indicates CMTS-based customer premises equipment. - The AS announces 4096 IPv4 addresses within a single /20 prefix (192.230.176.0/20) and maintains 2 observed routing neighbours, a ratio consistent with a local access network rather than a transit provider.
- Traffic consists of subscriber eyeballs for the city's cable television and internet services, serving residents of Morganton and surrounding areas.
Notable
- The RDAP registrant
City of Morgantonand netnameCOMPASalign directly with the AS handle and the operator's identity as a municipal utility. - CoMPAS was established by the City of Morganton to provide cable television services after the incumbent provider declined to improve local service quality.
- The inventory consists of a single contiguous IPv4 block with no announced IPv6 prefixes.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-11-03, 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: 451 networks and 1,853 prefixes, as published 2026-11-04. 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.
