Reach on the internet

AS202098 currently announces 4 IPv4 block(s), totaling about 19.5 thousand addresses (19,456 in all), registered in Italy. Services from AS_ENELENERGIA_ are reached through these addresses.

What it means to see AS202098 on your network

When you investigate where a connection from your computer or phone comes from (or goes to), you may find AS202098. That means the other end sits on the AS_ENELENERGIA_ network (Italy). It can be legitimate — a cloud service, an ISP, a CDN — or an unexpected connection worth checking.
