AS8373: the DEUBA-NET Germany network

AS8373 is an internet Autonomous System operated by DEUBA-NET Germany (Germany). Here is what that means and why this number may show up when you investigate a connection on your network.

What is AS8373?

An Autonomous System (ASN) is a block of networks under a single control with its own routing policy on the internet. The number AS8373 was assigned to DEUBA-NET Germany by an RIR (regional internet registry). All traffic entering or leaving that network is announced under this number.

Reach on the internet

AS8373 currently announces 11 IPv4 block(s), totaling about 12.3 thousand addresses (12,288 in all), registered in Germany. Services from DEUBA-NET Germany are reached through these addresses.

What it means to see AS8373 on your network

When you investigate where a connection from your computer or phone comes from (or goes to), you may find AS8373. That means the other end sits on the DEUBA-NET Germany network (Germany). It can be legitimate — a cloud service, an ISP, a CDN — or an unexpected connection worth checking.
