About this network

VIASAT-3 is operated by ViaSat, Inc.

What it's used for

• The address space carries residential satellite broadband traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries like 70-41-106-0.cust.exede.net and netnames such as WB-DEN1 and WB-DEN5.
• The AS announces 27,392 IPv4 addresses across 34 prefixes while maintaining only 2 observed neighbours, a ratio characteristic of an access network rather than a transit provider.
• Traffic from this AS consists of subscriber eyeballs accessing the internet via satellite, consistent with ViaSat's business as a satellite communications provider.

Notable

• All registrants in the sample are ViaSat, Inc., matching the AS holder.
• ViaSat completed the acquisition of WildBlue Communications in 2009, which explains the "WB" prefix in the netnames and the integration of WildBlue's address space into ViaSat's infrastructure.
• The inventory is composed of multiple /21 and /22 blocks, primarily in the 70.41.0.0/16, 75.104.0.0/16, and 184.62.0.0/16 ranges, with no IPv6 prefixes announced.
