Banglalink ASN, MCC/MNC and IP prefixes

Banglalink is a mobile network operator in Bangladesh and one of the brands of VEON, which describes it as its operating company in the country. The registry documents AS45245, registered to Banglalink Digital Communications Ltd., as the ASN carrying its mobile network, and records the MCC/MNC pair 470-03. Banglalink runs 4G LTE.

The registry records one ASN for Banglalink, AS45245, and documents it as the mobile network. RIPEstat shows the number announced, with 56 IPv4 prefixes against 26 IPv6 prefixes at the last probe, so the IPv4 footprint runs at roughly twice the IPv6 count. PeeringDB carries the network under the name banglalink but leaves the network type blank and lists no website, so the database confirms who holds the number without describing the network behind it.

An address whose origin ASN is AS45245 is routed by Banglalink. The registry documents that ASN as the operator's mobile network, so handset traffic originates there, though one operator ASN can also carry fixed and corporate customers and the routing data does not separate them. VEON is the parent group and its other operators hold their own ASNs, so AS45245 covers Banglalink in Bangladesh and does not extend to the rest of the group.
