Can you confirm that the answer in the Network Observables Challenge Exersize

  1. What is the Autonomous System Label for the IP 104.18.154[.]42

hasn’t changed? I’ve tried several variations from the label in virus total (which I’ve partially redacted below) but it’s not accepting it. The number of characters displayed in the hint doesn’t match, either.

Thanks. I found the wording slightly confusing then. Must be a PEBKAC issue.

Oh I agree that the wording is confusing. “Autonomous System Label” seems synonymous with Net Name, ASN Name, AS Name, etc.

I fail to understand why the “Autonomous System Label” value should not be taken from VirusTotal → Details → Basic Properties → Autonomous System Label. Isn’t the goal of this lab + challenge teaching some methodology??

I don’t think the wording is confusing. There is a field called exactly “Autonomous System Label” in VirusTotal’s Details tab, so why should I try picking up the data value from a field with a different name?
