AS59365 BD-NETWORKS-AS-AP - BD Networks
Unclassified APNIC Cable/DSL/ISP
Summary
Southlink Communication
isp residential bangladesh cable
BD-NETWORKS-AS-AP is operated by Southlink Communication, a Bangladeshi cable and DSL internet service provider.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential and small business internet traffic, consistent with the operator's classification as a Cable/DSL/ISP in PeeringDB.
- The AS announces 2048 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes and maintains 3 observed neighbours, a ratio indicative of an access network providing last-mile connectivity rather than transit.
- Traffic from this AS consists of subscriber eyeballs accessing the internet via cable or DSL connections in Bangladesh.
Notable
- Registrants for both announced prefixes list "BD Networks" and the IRT contact "IRT-BD-NETWORKS-BD", which aligns with the AS handle but differs from the commercial name Southlink Communication found in peering databases.
- The address inventory consists of two /22 blocks, 103.231.228.0/22 and 157.119.48.0/22, both located in Bangladesh.

Internet exchanges
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 2026-11-11, 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: 453 networks and 1,846 prefixes, as published 2026-11-12. 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.
