AS3Massachusetts Institute of Technology
As of 22nd October 2026, AS3 (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), an access network registered in the United States with ARIN, originates 90 IPv4 prefixes covering 1.9M addresses and 9 IPv6 prefixes. By IPv4 address space that makes it the 289th-largest of the 79,663 networks we see originating IPv4, and the 69th-largest of 18,476 in the United States. It is seen behind 11 upstream networks, most often AS3356 (Lumen (Level 3)) and AS174 (Cogent Communications, LLC), and in front of 4 downstream networks. None of its announcements have a valid RPKI ROA; 2 are RPKI-invalid. 97% of its routes reach at least 90% of full-feed peers, and 3 prefixes are also originated by another network.

Upstream graph
The networks AS3 is seen behind, one and two hops out, drawn from real AS paths.
Networks observed one and two hops upstream of AS3 in real AS paths. A thicker line means more vantage points saw that adjacency, so weight tracks how well attested it is — not how much traffic it carries. Adjacency is an observation; whether it is a transit purchase or a settlement-free peering is an inference, and is labelled as one wherever we show it.
