Unclassified RIPE
Summary
Siemens AG (Siemens UAE)
enterprise legacy
Siemens_UAE2 is held by Siemens AG, the German industrial and technology conglomerate. It is one of a family of per-region AS numbers Siemens has used to attach parts of its global corporate network, this one for its United Arab Emirates operations.
What it's used for
Corporate enterprise networking. The AS announces just two /24s — 141.29.236.0/24 and 141.29.164.0/24, 512 addresses in total — carved out of Siemens' own legacy 141.29.0.0/16. There is a single observed BGP neighbour, so this is one regional office network hanging off a single upstream, not a service provider.
No PTRs came back on the addresses sampled. That is common on internal corporate space and should not be read as anything more than that.
Notable
- The holder's country and the network's country differ: the registrant is Siemens AG in Germany, while the handle and the intended use point at the UAE. Geolocating this space to Munich would be as wrong as geolocating it to Dubai with confidence — it is corporate space attached to a specific regional site.
- 512 addresses is about as small as a routed enterprise presence gets. Everything that matters here is behind it, not in it.
Interesting
Siemens holds several low AS numbers from the era when large multinationals routinely registered one per major region. The addresses come from a single 141.29.0.0/16 legacy block, sliced thinly enough that two /24s on the far side of the world are announced independently.

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: 447 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.
