About this network

The AS handle FARICE-AS is held by Farice ehf.

What it's used for

• The address space carries international transit and submarine cable infrastructure, with netnames including IS-FARICE-20110420, IS-FARICE-20160531, Operations, and ProtonVPN-IS1.
• The AS announces 3072 IPv4 addresses and 1 IPv6 prefix across 5 prefixes, while maintaining 128 observed neighbours; this high neighbour-to-address ratio indicates a transit provider role rather than an access network.
• Traffic from this AS consists of international bandwidth and submarine cable capacity, as Farice operates the Farice-1, Danice, and IRIS cables connecting Iceland to Scotland, Denmark, and Ireland.

Notable

• Registrants for the largest prefixes are AS56704-RIPE, Farice ehf, and FARICE OPS, which align with the announcer.
• The address inventory is finely subdivided into four IPv4 prefixes and one IPv6 prefix, reflecting the segmented nature of its international connectivity estate.
