AS1508
AS1508 announces 1 IPv4 and 1 IPv6 prefixes and peers with 2 other networks.
Summary
- // analyst note
- Routing counts are a combined observation across route-views2 and route-views6 at 2026-11-03T14:00:00.000Z. AS_PATH neighbors are not verified peers or commercial relationships.
About this ASN.
AS1508 is an ASN assigned by ARIN in the IANA registry; its operator and deployment status are unknown from the supplied evidence. A combined RouteViews snapshot observed one IPv4 prefix and one IPv6 prefix at 2026-11-03 14:00 UTC. This is a dated routing observation, not proof of who operates the ASN or whether it is safe.
The observation covers route-views2 and route-views6 together. It includes an IPv4 address estimate of 256 and two AS_PATH neighbors, AS668 and AS36236. Those neighbors indicate observed path adjacency only; they do not establish direct peering, upstream service, or customer relationships.
For investigation, compare the announced prefixes with the specific service or network under review, then check current routing data and authoritative organizational records before attributing them to an operator. If a connection is unexpected, preserve its timestamp and full AS_PATH for follow-up. The supplied snapshot alone cannot show whether these routes persist, who controls them, or whether they were involved in harmful activity.
- Identity
- IANA lists AS1508 within the block assigned by ARIN; the operator is unknown from supplied evidence.
- Routing observation
- One IPv4 prefix and one IPv6 prefix were observed in the combined RouteViews snapshot at 2026-11-03 14:00 UTC.
- Triage
- The snapshot establishes routing presence at that time, but does not identify an operator or establish safety or harmful use.

Who it talks to.
Neighbours observed by RouteViews at 2026-11-06, lowest ASN first. Relationships are inferences from the CAIDA AS Relationships Dataset, 2026-08-01, and establish no commercial arrangement; a dash means the inference did not resolve.
