AS767

AS767 is a Department of Defense-registered ASN (DNIC-AS-00767) that currently announces zero prefixes and shows no active production routing today. RIPEstat and bgp.tools agree on zero announced IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes, and CAIDA's customer cone is a singleton (0 prefixes, 0 addresses) — though bgp.he.net shows 2 IPv4 prefixes at time of check, an unresolved source conflict rather than a confirmed change.

ARIN RDAP's autnum top-level registration event places allocation at 1990-10-31, independently corroborated by bgp.tools ("Registered on 31 Oct 1990"); the RDAP record itself was last updated 2025-09-12. The registrant organization address is 3990 E. Broad Street, Columbus, OH 43218; operational NOC/abuse contact runs through the DoD Network Information Center at DISA-Columbus, 300 North James Road, Whitehall, OH 43213.

The only historically observed announcement is 192.84.125.0/24, seen from 2000-08-18 to 2001-10-22 — stale, not current activity. CAIDA shows zero BGP degree (no customers, peers, or providers visible in topology), while third-party collectors note a single relationship with AS7767 (Encyclopaedia Britannica, an unrelated organization) that bgp.tools frames as upstream and bgp.he.net frames as a peer — a disputed classification, kept here as unverified context.

Operator-official detail is thin: no DoD or DISA page describing AS767's specific purpose, network type, or peering policy was located, and AS767 has no standalone PeeringDB network entry; the PeeringDB organization page for the US DoD (20 listed ASNs) does not include it. RPKI posture cannot be assessed while zero prefixes are currently announced, since validity is evaluated per-prefix.

Network & routing

Network type

Unknown — no DoD/DISA operator-official statement found describing AS767's network type or purpose; third-party (non-operator) BGP data show near-zero current announcements, consistent with a largely dormant/reserved DoD-block ASN [Unknown] — https://bgp.he.net/AS767

Size

dormant — 0 IPv4 prefixes / 0 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes per RIPEstat and bgp.tools; bgp.he.net shows 2 IPv4 prefixes at time of check (unresolved conflict); customer cone = 1 ASN (itself), 0 prefixes, 0 addresses

[Likely] — https://stat.ripe.net/AS767, https://asrank.caida.org/asns/767, https://bgp.tools/as/767, https://bgp.he.net/AS767

Routing/peering

not currently announced; CAIDA shows zero BGP degree (0 customers/peers/providers, unseen in topology); RIPEstat shows 1 observed neighbour; third-party collectors note a single relationship with AS7767 (Encyclopaedia Britannica, unrelated organization) — bgp.tools frames it as upstream, bgp.he.net frames it as a peer (disputed)

[Likely] — https://asrank.caida.org/asns/767, https://stat.ripe.net/AS767, https://bgp.tools/as/767, https://bgp.he.net/AS767

RPKI

not assessable — AS767 announces no prefixes currently, so RPKI validity (evaluated per-prefix) cannot be checked [Unknown]

Notable usage

Unknown — no DoD/DISA page found describing a specific purpose for AS767; only historically observed announcement is 192.84.125.0/24 (2000-08-18 to 2001-10-22), long stale [Unknown, with historical route Confirmed] — https://stat.ripe.net/AS767

Related ASNs

AS7767 (Encyclopaedia Britannica) — observed relationship of disputed type, unrelated organization [Likely]; other DoD DNIC-block ASNs for context only, not evidence of AS767's own usage: AS749, AS721, AS668, AS687 [Likely] — https://bgp.tools/as/767, https://bgp.he.net/AS767, https://db-ip.com/as749, https://db-ip.com/as721-dod-network-information-center

Analyst note

AS767 is a DoD DNIC-block ASN, effectively dormant in current routing (0 prefixes per most sources) with one stale historical announcement over two decades old. No official DoD/DISA page describes its specific purpose, and official website is Unknown — a live check of disa.mil on 2026-07-31 returned anomalous, unrelated content, an inconclusive fetch rather than evidence about the real site.
