About this ASN.

Updated  ·  Confidence: Low  ·  3 sources  ·  How this page is checked

AS983 is an ASN with unknown operator identity; a combined Route Views snapshot observed three IPv4 prefixes and two IPv6 prefixes on 2026-10-25 at 20:00 UTC. This establishes that routes associated with AS983 appeared in that snapshot, not who operates it or whether it is safe or malicious.

The observation combines route-views2 and route-views6 data. It records an estimated 768 IPv4 addresses and 44 observed AS_PATH neighbours. Those neighbours are path adjacencies only; the data does not establish commercial peering, upstreams, or customer relationships. The listed peers_sample values are a sample, not a complete neighbour list.

IANA places AS983 in the range 1–1876 described as assigned by ARIN. This identifies the allocating RIR for the block, not an individual assignment record or a verified operator. For investigation, compare the ASN and its announced prefixes against a fresh routing view, then examine the relevant route objects and first-party operator documentation before attributing ownership or purpose.
