Cisco Opendns, LLC

CISCO OPENDNS, LLC is the Cisco-owned entity behind the OpenDNS recursive DNS service and the Cisco Umbrella cloud-delivered security platform (the former OpenDNS enterprise offering was rebranded as Umbrella after Cisco’s 2015 acquisition). Public materials describe DNS-based protection features such as phishing/malware blocking and policy controls.

Routing and registry data consistently associates the organization with AS36692 (often labeled CISCO-UMBRELLA / OpenDNS) and with well-known anycast resolver IPs like 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. PeeringDB lists AS36692 as providing recursive DNS and cloud security services; additional references show related AS-SET entries that include AS36692 among other OpenDNS/Cisco-associated ASNs.

Online discussion is mixed: many users treat OpenDNS as a stable public resolver, while recurring threads report intermittent issues (misclassification, redirects, or perceived slowness). Independent, consistently scored review coverage is limited, so overall reputation signals remain moderate.
