Privacy
This tool processes requests on the server. Input is sent only for the requested operation and is not retained.
A validated ASN request for AS15169.
How it works
- Validate a public IP address or an AS number (ASnnn) and reject private/internal targets.
- Ask the platform API, which queries the configured ASN/routing provider.
- Normalize the ASN number, holder, country and announced prefixes.
- Prefix announcements change as routing changes; the result is fetched live.
Methodology
- Validate a public IP literal or an AS number and reject every private/reserved range.
- Query the deployment's configured ASN/routing provider with the validated target only.
- Normalize the ASN number, holder, country and announced prefixes.
Time model
- Time source: UTC.
- Timezone: Routing data is fetched at request time; prefix announcements can change between queries.
- Locale: ASN numbers and prefixes are numeric tokens; no locale-specific formatting is applied.
- Daylight saving: The query instant is absolute; daylight-saving transitions do not affect it.
- Reference date: There is no reference-date input; the result reflects the routing registry when the request is served.
Usage
- Enter a public IP address (for example 8.8.8.8) or an AS number (for example AS15169).
- Run the lookup.
- Read the ASN, holder name, country and announced prefixes.
Examples
These are examples, not current values: they use fixed inputs, while the interactive tool computes live results in your browser.

Server processing and data flow
This lookup runs on the Gampangin API because ASN/routing data is not available to a browser directly. Your IP or AS number is sent to our server, which queries the configured ASN provider.
The target is not retained or logged, the response is no-store and sets no cookie, and no provider credential reaches the browser.
Reading the result
The ASN identifies the network; the holder is the registered organization; the country is the registry's country code; the prefixes are the address blocks the provider associates with the ASN.
Frequently asked questions
- What is an ASN?
- An Autonomous System Number identifies a network that presents a single routing policy to the internet; BGP advertises routes for the prefixes it owns.
- Are my lookups stored?
- No. The target is used only for this lookup and is not retained, logged or used for analytics; responses are no-store.
