AS130

AS130 is a low-numbered legacy Autonomous System registered under ARIN to the Space Communications Division (ARIN OrgId SCD-31), a U.S. Department of Defense / U.S. Air Force unit located at Falcon Air Force Station, Colorado. The AS name CSOCNET-AS ties it to the Consolidated Space Operations Center (CSOC), a DoD satellite command-and-control facility built near Colorado Springs in the early-to-mid 1980s; operational control of the Air Force Satellite Control Network moved to Air Force Space Command in October 1987, the same month this ASN was registered. The site was later redesignated Falcon AFB (1988) and then Schriever AFB (1998), now Schriever Space Force Base. The key triage point is that AS130 is currently dormant: it announces zero IPv4 and zero IPv6 prefixes and is seen by 0 of 326 IPv4 and 0 of 320 IPv6 RIPE RIS peers as of June 2026, with CAIDA marking it "not seen" (rank 79459, customer cone of 1 — itself only). Historically it appeared in the global routing table from 2007-07-24 (198.186.141.0/24) through 2023-05-09 (45.234.56.0/22), with the last observed upstream being AS267361 (MAXCON Internet, a Brazilian ISP); the Brazilian address space announced under a U.S. DoD-registered ASN is anomalous and likely reflects a leasing or delegation arrangement before withdrawal. No notable public abuse signal was found as of June 2026.

Network & routing

Network type

U.S. government/military legacy ASN, currently inactive/dormant (no active IP allocations announced) [Confirmed] — https://ipinfo.io/AS130

Size

zero announced prefixes and zero addresses — RIPEstat announced_space v4 = 0 prefixes / 0 IPs, v6 = 0 prefixes / 0 /48s; CAIDA cone = 1 ASN (self) / 0 prefixes / 0 addresses [Confirmed] — https://stat.ripe.net/AS130, https://bgp.he.net/AS130

Routing/peering

no current upstreams, peers, or customers (CAIDA asnDegree total/customer/peer/provider all 0; RIPEstat observed_neighbours = 0). Last observed upstream AS267361 (MAXCON Internet) until 2023-05-09 [Confirmed for current state; last-upstream Likely] — https://bgp.he.net/AS130, https://api.caida.org/v2/restful/asns/130

RPKI

not assessable for an offline ASN — RIPEstat rpki-validation skipped (no prefix); bgp.he.net shows zero valid and zero invalid originations [Confirmed as unverifiable] — https://stat.ripe.net/AS130, https://bgp.he.net/AS130

Routing visibility

fully invisible — 0/326 IPv4 RIS peers and 0/320 IPv6 RIS peers seeing the ASN; CAIDA seen = false [Confirmed] — https://stat.ripe.net/AS130, https://bgp.tools/as/130

Historical routing

first seen 2007-07-24 (198.186.141.0/24); last seen 2023-05-09 (45.234.56.0/22); a matching IPv6 prefix 2804:4c48::/32 was also observed under the same upstream [Confirmed] — https://stat.ripe.net/AS130, https://bgp.he.net/AS130

Peering policy

no PeeringDB record exists (peeringdb.com/asn/130 returned 404); none expected for a dormant DoD ASN [Unknown] — no source (PeeringDB 404)

Notable usage

CSOCNET was the network of the Consolidated Space Operations Center (CSOC) at Falcon AFS, a DoD facility built ~1983–1985 for military satellite command-and-control; ASN registered the same month (Oct 1987) AFSCN control moved to Air Force Space Command

Geo footprint

registered US (Falcon AFS, CO); CAIDA country ISO = US, but longitude/latitude = 0 (placeholder, no geolocation on file). Last-announced prefixes were Brazilian blocks via MAXCON Internet — anomalous for a US DoD ASN [Likely] — https://api.caida.org/v2/restful/asns/130, https://bgp.he.net/AS130

Related ASNs

AS267361 (MAXCON Internet — last observed upstream before 2023 withdrawal) [Likely] — https://bgp.he.net/AS130

IXP presence

none observed (CAIDA ixp = null; cliqueMember = false) [Confirmed] — https://api.caida.org/v2/restful/asns/130

Analyst note

Encountered as a dormant low-numbered legacy DoD ASN. WHOIS POC is an ARIN placeholder ("There is no known POC for this organization"), and ARIN reported no POC validation response since 2025-02-08. Currently announces nothing; the late Brazilian-prefix activity via MAXCON suggests third-party use prior to withdrawal.
