AS987

AS987 falls within IANA range 1–1876, marked “Assigned by ARIN.” The supplied evidence does not identify its operator, country, or purpose. A combined Route Views snapshot observed one IPv4 prefix and one IPv6 prefix at 2026-10-25 20:00 UTC. These observations describe routing at that timestamp, not the ASN’s current status on 2026-10-26.

Across route-views2 and route-views6 together, the snapshot recorded an IPv4 address estimate of 256 and one AS_PATH neighbour, AS8309. This adjacency is not proof of a verified peer, upstream, or commercial relationship. The supplied evidence gives no prefix details, so it cannot support advice to identify a particular network from an address alone.

For investigation, compare the exact address and timestamp in question with the relevant routing snapshot, then examine the announced prefix and full AS_PATH in an appropriate route record. Treat the single observed neighbour as a lead for path analysis, not as an operator clue. The supplied material contains no evidence about deployment, traffic prevalence, reputation, malware, or safety; none can be inferred from these route counts or the registry block assignment.

Routing observation

One IPv4 prefix and one IPv6 prefix were observed in the combined Route Views snapshot at 2026-10-25 20:00 UTC.

AS_PATH neighbour

AS8309 was observed as an adjacency; this does not establish a verified peer or upstream.
