Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Galaxy Networks
hosting legacy
GALAXY is Galaxy Networks, a division of Kolacom, Inc. — a small network operator registered in Montvale, New Jersey, holding a 1995 ARIN allocation and the galaxy.net domain.
What it's used for
- A modest amount of hosting: roughly 5,000 addresses across three prefixes, with reverse DNS pointing at hosting-billing infrastructure under
galaxy.net.
Notable
- Single-homed behind one upstream (SD Data Center), which places it firmly in the small-operator category rather than among transit providers or large hosts.
- A good example of a low AS number that means longevity rather than scale: the network has held the same number since the mid-1990s while staying small.

Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Transit providers
1 upstream, 0 downstream and 1 adjacent networks observed; most-used upstreams first.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-19, 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: 442 networks and 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-20. 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.
