Case 9. Creating a Custom Local AS
Cubro SG DPI periodically updates public ASN databases. A custom AS is used when it is necessary to isolate a portion of IP addresses from a public AS for the purpose of obtaining statistics or prioritizing by direction.
In this section, it is possible to create a custom local AS and override the IP addresses that belong to the public AS into this local AS.
- Create a local AS. Fill in the fields:
- AS Number
- AS Name
- Specify resources for overriding. IP addresses or prefixes can be imported either through the clipboard (Import Resources button) or through files (Import from File button).
The list format: One column: IPv4 / IPv6 / IPv4-prefix / IPv6-prefix. The column specifies the IP address or prefix.
If an IPv4 address is specified, a subnet mask of /32 will be added;
If an IPv6 address is specified, a subnet mask of /128 will be added;
Supported file formats include: CSV, TSV, XLSX, TXT. The XLSX format is converted to CSV on-the-fly.
The rule applies to all traffic and to all channels and subscribers.
All overridden ASs are displayed in the section AS & DSCP → AS resource list. Filtering and searching can be performed based on the list of blocks and resources. Learn more about searching
