Questions about AS8972

Is AS8972 a VPN or hosting network?

Yes. Fraudex lists AS8972 (GD-EMEA-DC-SXB1) among the hosting, VPN, proxy and bot networks it flags, so visitors from it are usually servers or people hiding their real location rather than ordinary customers.

Which country is AS8972 registered in?

AS8972 is registered in Germany. Individual addresses can be used elsewhere, so check the IP itself when location matters.

How many IP addresses does AS8972 have?

It announces 67 IPv4 ranges with 103,167 addresses in total, plus 6 IPv6 ranges.

How do I block traffic from AS8972?

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.
