Summary
A1 Telekom Austria (LICPLUS)
isp enterprise legacy
LICPLUS-AS is a secondary autonomous system of A1 Telekom Austria AG, Austria's incumbent operator. It carries a slice of A1's fixed broadband access platform, not the operator's main network.
What it's used for
- Fixed internet access delivered over A1's
highwayplatform: every sampled address resolves underhighway.a1.net, split betweenstatic.highway.a1.net(fixed-IP assignments) andlns.highway.a1.net(addresses handed out by L2TP access concentrators). - About 75,000 IPv4 addresses across nine prefixes, plus one IPv6 prefix, all registered to A1 Telekom Austria itself.
Notable
- The naming is uniformly
static.rather than thedynamic./dyn.pools that mark mass-market consumer broadband, which points at fixed-IP access — the product a telco sells to businesses and to customers who pay for a static address. A1's bulk consumer eyeball space lives on other, much larger autonomous systems. - Three observed neighbours, no downstreams: this AS buys nothing on the open market and sells no transit. It is an access AS hanging off A1's own backbone.
Interesting
highwaywas Telekom Austria's original broadband brand, and the reverse-DNS zone has outlasted the brand by many years. Ana1.nethostname withhighwayin it is a fixed-line customer address, not a mobile one.

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: 432 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.
