All-in-one IPv4 / IPv6 Address Lookup

AS3 (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) manages the 18.29.96.0/19 prefix block (approximately 8192 addresses) in the Other category. AS3 independently controls its routing policy, peering relationships and IP allocation — Massachusetts Institute of Technology is directly responsible for traffic to and from addresses in the 18.29.96.0/19 block. The IP 18.29.126.253 resides in United States Massachusetts Boston (timezone America/New_York); its position within this block determines routing behavior and connectivity characteristics.

No reverse DNS (PTR) record is configured, which is common for dynamically assigned or CGNAT'd addresses but limits reverse verification capability. PTR records are commonly used by mail servers and anti-spam systems to validate connecting IPs — their absence can affect deliverability to strict receivers.

Based on local classification and Spamhaus real-time reputation, no blacklist entries detected, no security risk flags detected. The Unknown category indicates this IP is part of normal Other infrastructure and carries low inherent risk. Balance risk-control with normal access patterns: standard rate limiting plus CAPTCHA on sensitive flows.

Recommendation: insufficient data to classify 18.29.126.253 — apply a balanced policy: standard rate limiting, CAPTCHA for sensitive operations, and monitor access logs for anomalies. Reassess as the IP's usage history accumulates in this site's archive.
