AS9761: the ASIANA-AS ASIANAIDT network

AS9761 is an internet Autonomous System operated by ASIANA-AS ASIANAIDT (South Korea). Here is what that means and why this number may show up when you investigate a connection on your network.

What is AS9761?

An Autonomous System (ASN) is a block of networks under a single control with its own routing policy on the internet. The number AS9761 was assigned to ASIANA-AS ASIANAIDT by an RIR (regional internet registry). All traffic entering or leaving that network is announced under this number.

Reach on the internet

AS9761 currently announces 9 IPv4 block(s), totaling about 129.3 thousand addresses (129,280 in all), registered in South Korea. Services from ASIANA-AS ASIANAIDT are reached through these addresses.

What it means to see AS9761 on your network

When you investigate where a connection from your computer or phone comes from (or goes to), you may find AS9761. That means the other end sits on the ASIANA-AS ASIANAIDT network (South Korea). It can be legitimate — a cloud service, an ISP, a CDN — or an unexpected connection worth checking.
