# ASNs

An Autonomous System Number (ASN) is a numeric identifier used in the BGP protocol to identify which [autonomous system](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system_%28Internet%29) a particular prefix is originating and transiting through. NetBox support both 32- and 64- ASNs.
An Autonomous System Number (ASN) is a numeric identifier used in the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) to identify which [autonomous system](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system_%28Internet%29) a particular prefix is originating from or transiting through. NetBox supports both 16- and 32-bit ASNs.

ASNs must be globally unique within NetBox, and may be allocated from within a [defined range](./asnrange.md). Each ASN may be assigned to multiple [sites](../dcim/site.md).
