Summary
Vodafone Idea (Vi)
isp mobile eyeball
Vodafone Idea Ltd (VIL-AS-AP), branded Vi, is one of India's large mobile operators, formed from the merger of Vodafone India and Idea Cellular.
What it's used for
- Mobile data for a large Indian subscriber base, plus some fixed/enterprise connectivity.
Notable
- A large "eyeball" network — addresses here are typically consumer mobile devices, often behind carrier-grade NAT, so one public IP maps to many users.
- Competes with Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel in India's mobile market.
Interesting
- The Vodafone-Idea merger in 2018 combined two operators into one carrier that later rebranded as Vi.

Classification and threat
Mobile Cellular carrier. Addresses are shared by many handsets via CGNAT.
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.
