AS9087 RACKDOG-EU
Hosting RIPE
Summary
Rackdog, LLC
hosting enterprise legacy
AS9087 (RACKDOG-EU) is the European AS of Rackdog, LLC, a low-cost VPS and dedicated-server hosting provider.
What it's used for
Rackdog sells virtual private servers and cloud hosting. This AS carries the operator's European footprint: about nine /23-/24 prefixes (roughly 2,816 addresses) spread across several RIPE-region blocks (141.11.224.0/23, 185.206.69.0/24, 193.46.0.0/24, 185.250.24.0/23 and others), announced through a single observed upstream.
Notable
The blocks are scattered rather than one contiguous allocation, which is common for a hosting provider assembling capacity across regions; the space is announced under Rackdog's own RACKDOG-EU handle rather than third-party registrants, consistent with a genuine VPS operator's European expansion. No PTRs were returned on the addresses sampled.
Interesting
The -EU handle distinguishes this from Rackdog's North American routing; the AS number is a legacy allocation (announcing since 2000) that Rackdog now uses for its European nodes.

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.
