AS6968ZA CENTRAL REGISTRY NPC
As of 23rd October 2026, AS6968 (ZA CENTRAL REGISTRY NPC), a network registered in South Africa with AFRINIC, originates 4 IPv4 prefixes covering 3.1k addresses and 3 IPv6 prefixes. By IPv4 address space that makes it the 20,135th-largest of the 79,658 networks we see originating IPv4, and the 230th-largest of 653 in South Africa. It is seen behind 5 upstream networks, most often AS30844 (Liquid Intelligent Technologies) and AS6939 (Hurricane Electric LLC), and in front of 1 downstream network. Every one of its announcements has a valid RPKI ROA, and none are RPKI-invalid. 100% of its routes reach at least 90% of full-feed peers.

Upstream graph
The networks AS6968 is seen behind, one and two hops out, drawn from real AS paths.
Networks observed one and two hops upstream of AS6968 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.
