IP Address Response Fields

The IP address responses come with the following fields. Every JSON payload inherently contain every field. If a specific value cannot be determined, the field value is set to null.

Field Description
ip The IP address that is analyzed.
type The IP address type: either IPv4 or IPv6.
carrier → name The name of the mobile carrier that owns the IP address. If the value is not null, then it means with a very high likelihood that the IP address is used for mobile carrier traffic.
carrier → mcc The Mobile Country Code (MCC) of the carrier, when available.
carrier → mnc The Mobile Network Code (MNC) of the carrier, when available.
company → domain The domain guessed for the company associated with the IP.
company → name The company name for the company associated with the IP.
The ability of Ipregistry to tell the company depends on the size of the company and how it runs its network. Let's say WeWork has rented its space to a startup. If someone from that startups visits your website, we might not be able to identify the company since it is small and uses its building's network. However, we are able to tell you that the IP is from WeWork.

connection → asn The Autonomous System (AS) Number associated with the IP.

location → in_eu Boolean indicating whether the country is a recognized member of the European Union.
security → is_anonymous Boolean with true value if is_proxy, is_tor OR is_vpn is satisfied.
security → is_abuser Boolean indicating whether the IP Address is a known source of abuse (e.g. spam, harvesters, registration bots).
security → is_attacker Boolean indicating whether the IP Address is a known source of malicious activity (e.g. attacks, malware, botnet activity).
security → is_bogon Boolean indicating whether the IP Address is a Bogon: an unassigned, unaddressable IP address.
security → is_cloud_provider Boolean indicating whether the IP address is used for hosting purposes (e.g. a node from Akamai, Cloudflare, Google Cloud Platform, Amazon EC2, and more).
security → is_proxy Boolean indicating whether the IP Address is a known proxy. It includes HTTP/HTTPS/SSL/SOCKS/CONNECT and transparent proxies.

The field is_cloud_provider is not considered. It is up to you to combine this last field with a logical OR or not.

security → is_tor_exit Boolean indicating whether the IP Address is a Tor exit relay node.
security → is_vpn Returns true when the IP address under search is used by a Virtual Private Network (VPN), false otherwise. VPNs encrypt internet traffic and disguise online identity.
