AS793

AS793 is a dormant enterprise autonomous system registered to Oracle Corporation, embedded inside ARIN's contiguous AS792–AS794 block ("ORACLE-ASNBLOCK-ASN") rather than allocated as its own standalone RIR object. As of 2026-08-01 it announces zero IPv4 and zero IPv6 prefixes and has not been visible in the global routing table since 2024-09-13, per bgp.he.net and RIPEstat's as-overview.

ARIN RDAP's top-level autnum record for the AS792–AS794 block carries a registration event dated 1990-12-13 and a last-changed event dated 2013-09-10; this is a first-party RIR registration date and is recorded here as the allocated_date rather than nulled. The registrant, ARIN org handle ORACLE-4-Z, lists a registered address at 500 Oracle Parkway, Redwood Shores, CA, while the admin/technical/routing/abuse contacts on the object point to Oracle's current Austin, TX headquarters — a separate org-entity record date (2013-08-21) exists but is not conflated with the ASN's allocation date.

Historically AS793 originated 139.185.0.0/17 (32,768 addresses, last seen 2024-09-13) and 148.87.112.0/20 (4,096 addresses, first seen 2001-07-12), both now inactive. CAIDA ASRank places it at rank 79,459 with cliqueMember and seen both false, and a customer cone of a single ASN with zero prefixes and zero addresses; no upstreams are currently observed. bgp.he.net's one historical IPv4 peer, AS8966 (Etisalat), is not corroborated by CAIDA's current peer degree of zero. No PeeringDB net object exists for AS793, and no AS793-specific peering policy was found published by Oracle.

Public abuse signal

none found as of 2026-08-01 — AS793 does not appear in the Spamhaus ASN-DROP list, and a NANOG mailing-list archive search for "AS793" returned zero matches.

Bogon flag discrepancy

bgp.he.net's cached page carries a legacy "announces bogons" notation not corroborated by bgp.tools's current zero-prefix, no-bogon state — treated as a stale label rather than a live signal.

Unverifiable feeds

AbuseIPDB and Cisco Talos Reputation Center returned HTTP 403 and AlienVault OTX returned HTTP 404, so those reputation sources could not be independently checked and are recorded as Unknown, not clean.

RPKI

not evaluated for AS793 specifically; with zero current announcements there is no active origination to validate against a ROA.

Operator

Oracle Corporation (ARIN org handle ORACLE-4-Z) [Confirmed] — rdap.arin.net/registry/autnum/793, oracle.com/corporate

Country / RIR

US, ARIN [Confirmed] — ARIN RDAP autnum

Allocated

1990-12-13 (ARIN RDAP autnum top-level registration event on the AS792–AS794 block); last changed 2013-09-10 [Confirmed] — ARIN RDAP autnum top-level events

Org status

RIR record status Active on the AS792–AS794 block per ARIN RDAP; operationally dormant/unannounced since 2024-09-13 — a routing-visibility state, not a deregistration [Confirmed] — ARIN RDAP autnum

Contacts

[Confirmed] — ARIN RDAP autnum

Security/abuse context (NEUTRAL, DATED)

no notable public abuse signal found as of 2026-08-01 — not in Spamhaus ASN-DROP or NANOG archives; a legacy "announces bogons" label on bgp.he.net is not corroborated by bgp.tools; AbuseIPDB, Talos, and OTX could not be checked (403/403/404)

Network & routing

Network type

enterprise/corporate ASN embedded in the AS792–AS794 "ORACLE-ASNBLOCK-ASN" block, not a standalone RIR object; not a public transit or eyeball ISP network [Confirmed] — ARIN RDAP autnum

Size

dormant — 0 IPv4/IPv6 prefixes currently announced; historically 139.185.0.0/17 (32,768 addrs, last seen 2024-09-13) and 148.87.112.0/20 (4,096 addrs, first seen 2001-07-12); customer cone = 1 ASN, 0 prefixes, 0 addresses; CAIDA AS rank 79,459

[Confirmed] — RIPEstat, CAIDA ASRank, bgp.he.net (2026-08-01)

Routing/peering

NOT currently announced — not visible in the global routing table since 2024-09-13; 0 upstreams observed (CAIDA asnDegree.provider=0); 1 historical IPv4 peer, AS8966 Etisalat, per bgp.he.net, not corroborated by CAIDA's current peer degree of 0 [Confirmed for dormancy; Likely for the historical peer]. No PeeringDB net object for AS793 and no published AS793-specific peering policy [Confirmed]

RPKI

with zero current announcements there is no active origination to validate against a ROA; not evaluated specifically for AS793 [Unknown]

Notable usage

none identified beyond legacy corporate address space (139.185.0.0/17, 148.87.112.0/20); no NANOG mailing-list discussion found [Confirmed]

Related ASNs

AS792 and AS794 (same contiguous ARIN "ORACLE-ASNBLOCK-ASN" block, same registrant) [Confirmed]

Analyst note

AS793 has no standalone RIR record — ARIN RDAP resolves it inside the AS792–AS794 block. Whether it traces back to Sun Microsystems (Oracle's 2010 acquisition, predating the 1990 registration) is unconfirmed and is left Unknown rather than inferred.
