AS14114: the SAP-NIE network

AS14114 is an internet Autonomous System operated by SAP-NIE (the United States). Here is what that means and why this number may show up when you investigate a connection on your network.

What is AS14114?

An Autonomous System (ASN) is a block of networks under a single control with its own routing policy on the internet. The number AS14114 was assigned to SAP-NIE by an RIR (regional internet registry). All traffic entering or leaving that network is announced under this number.

Reach on the internet

AS14114 currently announces 37 IPv4 block(s), totaling about 82.9 thousand addresses (82,944 in all), registered in the United States. Services from SAP-NIE are reached through these addresses.

What it means to see AS14114 on your network

When you investigate where a connection from your computer or phone comes from (or goes to), you may find AS14114. That means the other end sits on the SAP-NIE network (the United States). It can be legitimate — a cloud service, an ISP, a CDN — or an unexpected connection worth checking.
