mod_asn Description

An Apache module to look up routing data mod_asn is an Apache module that uses BGP routing data to look up the autonomous system (AS) and the network prefix (subnet) which contains a given (clients) IP address.mod_asn is highly scalable. To do lookups in high-speed, it uses the PostgreSQL ip4r datatype that is indexable with a Patricia Trie algorithm to store network prefixes. This is the most suitable algorithm being able to search through the ~250.000 existing prefixes in a breeze.mod_asn is usable as standalone module, and the lookup result can be used by scripts or other Apache modules. For instance, a download redirector could base its decisions on the lookup result provided by mod_asn.mod_asn is used by MirrorBrain, a download redirector and metalink generator.mod_asn is available under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0.
