IP To ASN Database & Smart Network Analysis

Lookup Autonomous System Number (ASN) details by providing an IP address or ASN using our ASN database. The internet consists of a large number of Autonomous Systems (ASes). Each AS is made up of one or more IP networks managed by a single entity and shares a unified routing policy to connect to the rest of the internet. ASNs play an important role in network infrastructure by uniquely identifying each AS. Understanding network details has become crucial for ISPs, security professionals, network operators and other businesses to take data-driven decisions and secure their network.

Why ASN Lookup Is a Must-Have for Network Intelligence?

The ASN database allows you to have comprehensive and detailed network insights about the ASN of any organization or any provided IP Address owned by a particular Autonomous System. It offers vital information including ASN owner organization, its registered country, domain, date allocated, and routes owned by that organization. Get a clearer understanding of global network routing by examining routing information like peering relationships, transit providers (upstreams), and client networks (downstreams).

Key Use Cases

Investigate

IP Address Investigation

Quickly determine the autonomous system and managing organization associated with a specific IP for enhanced security or business operations.

This database is ideal for businesses and network engineers that need detailed insights into IP ownership, routing, and network structure. Use it to identify AS numbers, organization names, peer relationships, upstream/downstream connections, and route announcements. It’s valuable for optimizing network performance, detecting routing anomalies, and enhancing BGP security. By understanding how IPs are routed and which networks they belong to, you can make smarter infrastructure decisions, improve connectivity, and power data-driven analysis across your systems.

We support custom formats and structures upon request.Contact us to discuss your specific needs.

Why Comprehensive ASN Data is important?

A solid understanding of ASN information is necessary to understand the internet infrastructure thoroughly. It supports close observation of IP addresses, assists in setting up routes using BGP and helps in identifying the entities responsible for controlling the network and allocating addresses. This information is necessary for security experts, network managers and researchers working on the internet. The use of accurate autonomous system number info helps improve decision making on the internet and strengthens its overall security.

Frequently Asked Questions

An ASN is a globally unique identifier assigned to an autonomous system, a network or group of networks under a single organization's management that has a defined routing policy.

Yes, you can perform an ASN lookup for any IP address using our service. It provides details such as the associated ASN, the organization that owns it, and the IP ranges linked to that address.

Yes, we offer an ASN Lookup API providing detailed information such as the ASN number, organization name, IP ranges, routing data, peers, upstreams, downstreams, domain, allocation status, and WHOIS response.

We update our ASN dataset on a daily basis, collecting data from reliable sources to ensure accuracy and reliability.

Autonomous Systems use BGP to advertise IP prefixes and exchange routing information between routers, peers, upstreams, and downstreams. This enables efficient connections and data flow across interconnected networks and the global internet infrastructure.

Our database includes the ASN number, associated organization's name, country of registration, announced IP routes, domain, peering details, and allocation status.

Yes, we offer a free ASN lookup tool that allows you to perform lookups with a limited number of requests. It's perfect for basic queries and getting started with ASN insights.
