Summary
Johan Hedberg
ipv6-only legacy
JHEDBERG is registered to Johan Hedberg (trading as Hedberg Productions), a private individual in Johannishus, Sweden. It is a one-person autonomous system, and it carries no IPv4 at all.
What it's used for
- Announcing two IPv6 provider-independent /48s,
JHEDBERG-IP6-1andJHEDBERG-IP6-2, both assigned directly to the holder by RIPE NCC. There is no IPv4 inventory and no delegated rDNS on the sampled addresses. - The aut-num's own remarks block is an empty Transit / IXPs template, which is what a small personal network looks like when nobody has filled the form in.
Notable
- Deliberately unclassified. With zero IPv4, two PI /48s and a private individual as the registrant, there is no honest bucket for this AS: it is neither an ISP, a hosting network, nor an enterprise. Anything reading it as a company network is reading the AS number, not the evidence.
- Its addresses should not be used to infer a service type, and the space should not be geolocated more precisely than "Sweden".
Interesting
- Personal ASNs like this are common in the RIPE region, where an individual can hold PI space and an AS number directly. The low number is a reissue: the registry records the current holder from 2015, not the early-internet era the number's range suggests.

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: 443 networks and 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-24. 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.
