AS7488 CNSERVER-AP-AS CNServer LLC

CNSERVER-AP-AS belongs to CNServer LLC (trading as CNServers), a hosting

company selling web hosting, VPS and dedicated infrastructure. Despite the

APNIC registration, it is a US-registered LLC operating globally.

What it's used for

• Commercial hosting: shared and WordPress hosting, virtual servers, and network/transit services. The company advertises itself as a network service provider with worldwide reach.

Notable

• The announced footprint has an unusual shape: roughly 79 IPv4 prefixes, mostly /24s, totalling only about 23,000 addresses — and drawn from scattered ARIN, RIPE and APNIC ranges rather than from one contiguous allocation. That pattern is typical of address space assembled from leases and transfers rather than grown from an RIR allocation, and it is worth knowing before treating any single prefix here as "the operator's home range".
• Reverse DNS across the space is largely absent, which limits what can be said about individual prefixes.
• The registered address, 8 The Green in Dover, Delaware, is a shared registered-agent mail drop used by very many companies. It says nothing about where the network actually lives.

Interesting

• The number was reissued. APNIC registered this AS in 2023, so the 7000s numbering is an artifact of recycling, not of early-internet history.
