government military legacy

AS5852 is a US Department of Defense network from the block

DNIC-ASBLK-05800-06055, registered to the DoD Network Information Center (DNIC).

It is one of the largest ASNs in that block.

What it's used for

  • US government / military network operations. The DNIC registration is generic and does not identify a specific command or installation.

Notable

  • Government / military space, not a commercial ISP or hosting provider.
  • Substantial: roughly 506,000 addresses across some 850 IPv4 prefixes, plus a few IPv6 prefixes. Announcing hundreds of small prefixes under one AS points to a network aggregating many separate sites rather than a single facility.
  • Part of the contiguous 5800–6055 block of DoD-held ASNs.
