Summary
Ohio IX
ix peering infrastructure ohio
OHIO-IX-OPS is operated by Ohio IX.
What it's used for
- The address space carries the operational infrastructure for the Ohio Internet Exchange, as indicated by the netname
OHIOIXand the registrantOHIO IX. - The AS announces 256 IPv4 addresses within a single /24 prefix and 1 IPv6 prefix, while maintaining only 3 observed routing neighbours. This low neighbour count relative to the address inventory indicates a specialized peering or exchange point role rather than a transit or access network.
- Traffic from this AS consists of peering sessions and exchange point operations connecting service providers, content networks, and enterprises for mutual network access.
Notable
- The RDAP registrant
OHIO IXand netnameOHIOIXalign directly with the AS handleOHIO-IX-OPSand the registry holderOHIO-IX-OPS. - The address inventory is compact, consisting of a single IPv4 /24 block and one IPv6 /36 prefix, which is typical for the management and peering infrastructure of an Internet Exchange Point.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
