AS9755 — RPKINET1 Korea Internet Security Agency

AS9755 announces 1 IPv4 prefixes covering 256 addresses and 0 IPv6 prefixes.

About this network

AS9755 (RPKINET1-KR) is held by the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA), the agency under South Korea's Ministry of Science and ICT that runs KRNIC — the national registry for Korea's IPv4/IPv6 address space and ASNs — and administers the .kr ccTLD. The RPKINET1 handle names the network's purpose: RPKI, the resource public key infrastructure that lets networks cryptographically validate route origins.

What it's used for

The footprint is deliberately minimal: a single IPv4 prefix, 202.30.120.0/24 — 256 addresses — no IPv6 origin, and one observed BGP neighbour. This is not a network with users; it is dedicated registry infrastructure. An AS carved out to carry RPKI services is the same pattern other registries follow: keep the machinery that publishes and validates route-origin authorisations on its own routed block, separate from the rest of the organisation's estate, so its reachability and its RPKI status can be reasoned about independently. The 202.30.0.0/15 range is long-standing Korean academic and infrastructure space, which is where KRNIC's own services have historically been numbered.

Notable

• KISA is the successor to a 2009 merger of the Korea Information Security Agency, the National Internet Development Agency and the Korean IT International Cooperation Agency, which is why one body now covers security response, the number registry and the domain registry.
• A single /24 behind a single neighbour is a very small routing posture for national registry infrastructure. Resilience for RPKI publication comes from repository distribution and validator caching, not from this AS's peering.
• Do not read the tiny size as insignificance. What this network serves is consumed by every Korean operator doing route-origin validation.
