Summary

NOVA Technologies Development (NovaNetwork)

China · AI-generated

legacy hosting isp enterprise

AS9809 (NovaNetwork) is held by Shenzhen NOVA Technologies Development Co., Ltd, a Shenzhen-headquartered commercial network operator. NOVA holds a nationwide value-added telecom licence covering IP-VPN, fixed-line data transmission, internet access, data centre (IDC) and cloud services, and sells "multi-line BGP" connectivity aimed at corporate customers.

What it's used for

RIS sees 28 IPv4 prefixes carrying 13,056 addresses, no IPv6, and only 5 BGP neighbours. The inventory is split between one solid 116.214.32.0/19 (deaggregated into eight /22s, the usual traffic-engineering habit of a multi-homed operator) and a scatter of individual /24s in 219.235.0.0/16 and 116.214.128.0/17. That is a service-provider footprint at small-carrier scale: enough contiguous space to hand out to hosted and connected customers, and a handful of upstreams rather than the hundreds of neighbours a wholesale transit network would show. Sampled reverse DNS returns a generic user.nova.net.cn on customer-facing addresses, consistent with an access/IDC pool served under NOVA's own domain rather than a network carrying someone else's brand.

Notable

  • NOVA's selling point is BGP multi-homing across China's split north/south carrier backbones — buying transit from several nationals at once so customers get usable performance on both sides. That is exactly what a modest address count plus multiple upstreams looks like in routing terms.
  • The AS number was issued by CNNIC, and the network is present in Shenzhen, Shanghai and Beijing.
  • Despite a 25-year-old registration, no IPv6 is announced at all.

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: 442 networks and 1,782 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
