IP TO ASN MAPPING IS NOT A GEOIP SERVICE!
The country code, registry, and allocation date are all based on data obtained directly from the regional registries including: ARIN, RIPE, AFRINIC, APNIC, LACNIC. The information returned relating to these categories will only be as accurate as the data present in the RIR databases.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Country codes are likely to vary significantly from actual IP locations, and we must strongly advise that the IP to ASN mapping tool not be used as an IP geolocation (GeoIP) service.
The exact links for each of the datasets are as follows:
- ftp.arin.net/pub/stats/arin/delegated-arin-extended-latest
- ftp.ripe.net/ripe/stats/delegated-ripencc-latest
- ftp.afrinic.net/pub/stats/afrinic/delegated-afrinic-latest
- ftp.apnic.net/pub/stats/apnic/delegated-apnic-latest
- ftp.lacnic.net/pub/stats/lacnic/delegated-lacnic-latest
The ASN descriptions are based on data obtained from cidr-report. (http://www.cidr-report.org/)
