Summary
Macomnet
isp enterprise legacy
JSC Macomnet (MACOMNET) is a Moscow fibre operator. It built its network in the 1990s over the Moscow Metro's tunnels and has served corporate and carrier customers in the city ever since.
What it's used for
- Business internet access, leased lines and dark fibre for companies, financial institutions and other carriers in Moscow.
- Data-centre and colocation connectivity for hosted customer systems.
Notable
- A B2B network rather than a consumer one. Reverse DNS across
213.247.128.0/17and87.118.192.0/18follows Macomnet's ownhost-NN.CUSTOMER.NET.MASK.macomnet.netconvention, naming individual corporate customers and data-centre systems — there are no dial-up, PPPoE or DHCP subscriber pools. - About 74,000 IPv4 addresses in four large aggregates, with eight IPv6
/32s registered alongside them.
Interesting
- The metro-tunnel build is why an operator of this size holds such a low AS number: it was one of the first alternative carriers in Moscow, predating most of the Russian internet's commercial infrastructure.

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: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
