Do you plan to support IPv6 -> ASN mappings as well, at some point?
Another interesting feature related to that would be supporting special
resolution of 6to4 addresses (RFC3056); looking up 2002:0102:0304:: would
give you also the info on IP 1.2.3.4.

Indeed _also_, as the source ASN's can differ between the ASN's
used for announcing the IPv4 and the IPv6 prefix.
Fortunatly, except for currently 4 prefixes, there should not
be something more specific than 2002::/16 per RFC3056.
From GRH:
2002:c2b1:d06e::/48 More specific 6to4 prefix (194.177.208.110/32) from AS5408
2002:c8a2::/33 More specific 6to4 prefix (200.162.0.0/17) from AS15180
2002:c8c6:4000::/34 More specific 6to4 prefix (200.198.64.0/18) from AS15180
2002:c8ca:7000::/36 More specific 6to4 prefix (200.202.112.0/20) from AS15180
BTW if somebody has a working contact for AS15180, don't mind to
mention it, as they seem quite unresponsive... Others did respond
and cleansed it up btw ![:slight_smile: :slight_smile:](https://community.nanog.org/images/emoji/apple/slight_smile.png?v=12)
