AS971
AS971 announces 1 IPv4 and 1 IPv6 prefixes and peers with 8 other networks.
Summary
- // analyst note
- The eight observed AS_PATH neighbours are adjacencies in the combined snapshot, not verified peers or upstreams. Routing observation time: 2026-10-25T20:00:00.000Z; collectors: route-views2 and route-views6.
About this ASN.
AS971’s operator and registered organization are unknown from the supplied evidence. In the combined Route Views observation at 2026-10-25 20:00 UTC, one IPv4 prefix and one IPv6 prefix were visible. This is a dated routing snapshot, not confirmation of present-day activity or organizational identity.
The IANA number block lists AS971 within 1–1876 as “Assigned by ARIN”; ARIN is the allocating RIR shown for this block. That block-level entry does not identify an individual ASN assignee, country, or operator. Routing data cannot fill those gaps, and the observed prefixes do not establish who uses them or what services they carry.
Eight AS_PATH neighbours were observed across route-views2 and route-views6 combined. Treat these as path adjacencies only: they do not establish verified peers, upstreams, or commercial relationships. For triage, compare the ASN’s current origin announcements and route objects with the specific IP or prefix under investigation, then check first-party operator records before attributing ownership. The supplied snapshot alone supports no safety or security conclusion.
- Identity
- Operator and organization are Unknown from the supplied evidence.
- Routing snapshot
- One IPv4 prefix and one IPv6 prefix were observed in the combined route-views2 and route-views6 observation at 2026-10-25 20:00 UTC.
- Triage
- Check current origin announcements and prefix records for the specific address; observed AS_PATH neighbours do not prove commercial relationships or safety.

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.
