# How to Retrieve Detailed IPv6 Address Information

We provide powerful tools to retrieve granular information and risk scores for IPv6 addresses, leveraging a proprietary scanning engine to deliver actionable cyber intelligence. Users can access detailed data points, including Autonomous System Number (ASN), ASN Reputation scores, certificate information, Tor and IPFS nodes, geographic location, Subnet data, and the Risk Score, which assesses the potential threat level of an IPv6 address based on its DNS records and other factors.

## Retrieve information

1. From the left navigation menu, select **Advanced Query Builder > IPv6 Queries > Information**.
2. Specify an IPv6 address.
  - (Optional) Click **Explain** to view details of the data used to calculate scores in the response.
  - (Optional) Select a category under **Sparse** to retrieve specific information:
    - **asn**: Returns the Autonomous System Number for the IPv6 address.
    - **asname**: Returns the AS Name for the IPv6 address.
    - **sp_risk_score**: Returns the Silent Push Risk Score for the IPv6 address.
3. Click **Search**.

For querying multiple IPv6 addresses, use **Advanced Query Builder > IPv6 Queries > Information - Bulk Query** to retrieve the same data points for a group of IPs.

## Retrieve the Risk Score

1. From the left navigation menu, select **Advanced Query Builder > IPv6 Queries > Risk Score**.
2. Specify an IPv6 address.
3. Click **Search**.

For risk scores on multiple IPs, use **Advanced Query Builder > IPv6 Queries > Risk Score - Bulk query**.

## Save Query

1. Specify query parameters.
2. Click **Save Query**.
3. Provide a **Name** and **Description** for context.
4. Click **Save**. The query appears in [**Private Queries**](https://help.silentpush.com/docs/private-queries).

This consolidated approach enables security teams, threat hunters, and researchers to gather critical IPv6 data and assess risks efficiently.

Autonomous System Number, a unique numeric identifier assigned to an Autonomous System (AS) for managing IP address routing within and between networks on the internet

A measure of an Autonomous System’s trustworthiness, calculated as the ratio of blacklisted IP addresses to the total active IPs within the ASN over the past 30 days, indicating potential risk levels.

The network segment associated with an IP address, used to contextualize and analyze related infrastructure.

The descriptive name assigned to an Autonomous System (AS), a collection of IP routing prefixes under the control of one or more network operators, used to identify the network in routing operations.

A feature in Silent Push that allows simultaneous analysis of multiple IPs or domains in a single query, enabling efficient processing of large datasets for threat intelligence.
