Questions about AS5501
Is AS5501 a VPN or hosting network?
Fraudex does not list AS5501 (FRAUNHOFER-CLUSTER-BW) as a VPN, proxy or hosting network. Its addresses are treated as regular traffic, apart from any Tor exit relays.
Which country is AS5501 registered in?
AS5501 is registered in Germany. Individual addresses can be used elsewhere, so check the IP itself when location matters.
How many IP addresses does AS5501 have?
It announces 28 IPv4 ranges with 121,600 addresses in total, plus 10 IPv6 ranges.
How do I block traffic from AS5501?
Blocking a whole network by number goes stale as ranges change hands. It is more reliable to check each visitor's IP when they sign up, log in or pay: the Fraudex API returns the network and a VPN and bot verdict, so you can block, challenge or just log flagged traffic. See why an IP blocking API pays for itself.
