AS7717: the OPENIXP-AS-ID-AP OpenIXP ASN network

AS7717 is an internet Autonomous System operated by OPENIXP-AS-ID-AP OpenIXP ASN (Indonesia). Here is what that means and why this number may show up when you investigate a connection on your network.

What is AS7717?

An Autonomous System (ASN) is a block of networks under a single control with its own routing policy on the internet. The number AS7717 was assigned to OPENIXP-AS-ID-AP OpenIXP ASN by an RIR (regional internet registry). All traffic entering or leaving that network is announced under this number.

Reach on the internet

AS7717 currently announces 4 IPv4 block(s), totaling about 1.3 thousand addresses (1,280 in all), registered in Indonesia. Services from OPENIXP-AS-ID-AP OpenIXP ASN are reached through these addresses.

What it means to see AS7717 on your network

When you investigate where a connection from your computer or phone comes from (or goes to), you may find AS7717. That means the other end sits on the OPENIXP-AS-ID-AP OpenIXP ASN network (Indonesia). It can be legitimate — a cloud service, an ISP, a CDN — or an unexpected connection worth checking.
