AS1136: the KPN KPN National network

AS1136 is an internet Autonomous System operated by KPN KPN National (the Netherlands). Here is what that means and why this number may show up when you investigate a connection on your network.

What is AS1136?

An Autonomous System (ASN) is a block of networks under a single control with its own routing policy on the internet. The number AS1136 was assigned to KPN KPN National by an RIR (regional internet registry). All traffic entering or leaving that network is announced under this number.

Reach on the internet

AS1136 currently announces 199 IPv4 block(s), totaling about 7.3 million addresses (7,265,791 in all), registered in the Netherlands. Services from KPN KPN National are reached through these addresses.

What it means to see AS1136 on your network

When you investigate where a connection from your computer or phone comes from (or goes to), you may find AS1136. That means the other end sits on the KPN KPN National network (the Netherlands). It can be legitimate — a cloud service, an ISP, a CDN — or an unexpected connection worth checking.
