AS99

AS99 is a legacy allocation registered under ARIN to Intel Corporation, carrying the handle "INTEL-IWARP" — a reference to Intel's historical iWarp parallel-computing project of the late 1980s (a joint Intel/Carnegie Mellon systolic-array effort). It is an early Intel research allocation, and it is dormant: as of June 2026, IPinfo reports the ASN as "Inactive" with zero peers, zero upstreams/downstreams, zero hosted domains, and no prefixes found. Intel's active network operations use other ASNs (e.g., AS4983). The allocation date is 1987-02-19 per IPinfo (last updated 2002-12-12) — a secondary source; the canonical ARIN RDAP value should be preferred if it differs. For triage this is a dormant Intel legacy number; any appearance in live BGP would be anomalous and worth scrutiny. No notable public abuse signal was found as of June 2026.
