"Alibaba" ISP? Proxy traffic < (5)

---

I ran a campaign on a chinese geo, and im getting alot of traffic with "Alibaba" as the ISP, and tracker has marked the connection type as a "corporate". May i know more details about "Alibaba" ISP. Is this proxy traffic?

Also is there a website or somewhere i can check more details on any ISP?

Thanks

Corporate: Generally considered harmless, but location can be a concern. Multiple users are proxied through a central location or locations, and thus share a single network-apparent IP address.

Thanks! if i got you correctly it means this is proxy traffic? Would it be considered "fraud" or "bot" traffic ?

I don't think so, at least not point-blank. It means it most likely comes from a big company. You have to look at other data points and see negative patterns there to be suspicious about it.

For example, Voluum flags IP as suspicious by our 'Frequent events' metric if a certain IP address generates a lot of events, more than 60 per minute. As it is more than a typical visitor would, it is highly likely that those events are of non-human origin.

You'll find all our metrics explained here.
