What is Snapchat?

Snapchat - Messaging

Peer-to-Peer Detection with DPI

Applications such as Snapchat use peer-to-peer signaling protocols to establish direct connections between devices, often leveraging dynamic IP changes. Netify protocol detection is the best way to properly track this type of network session.

Snapchat Network

Some organizations deploy all or parts of an application solution through their own infrastructure instead of third party hosting providers like AWS or Google Cloud Platform. The following is a sample of active IP addresses on the Snapchat Network.

Sample IP	ASN	ASN Description	Route	Location
104.193.185.253	AS395291	Snapchat	104.193.185.0/24	Hong Kong

Core Networks

Applications are sometimes deployed on partner networks, parent company networks, or regional hosting providers. The following is a sample of Snapchat IP addresses deployed on this type of network.
