IP WHOIS of 1.1.1.1 (APNIC): announced by Cloudflare (AS13335) but registered to APNIC Research and Development.

Example 5 of 8 · [IP WHOIS Examples](/reference/lookup/ip-whois/examples/) · endpoint: [IP WHOIS](/reference/lookup/ip-whois/)

Tags: `param` `ip` · `value` `1.1.1.1`

Asks for the IP WHOIS record of `1.1.1.1`, the Cloudflare public resolver.

The routing and the registration tell two stories: `asn` `13335` belongs to Cloudflare, while the network `APNIC-LABS` (`1.1.1.0/24`, `ASSIGNED PORTABLE`, country `AU`) is registered to APNIC Research and Development, as its remarks explain ("APNIC and Cloudflare DNS Resolver project"). APNIC networks have no `handle` format like ARIN's: `handle` is the address range `1.1.1.0 - 1.1.1.255`.

## Request

| Parameter | In | Value |
|---|---|---|
| `ip` | query | `1.1.1.1` |
