# GeoIP2::Model::AnonymousIP(3pm)

Model class for the GeoIP2 Anonymous IP database

## NAME

GeoIP2::Model::AnonymousIP - Model class for the GeoIP2 Anonymous IP database

## VERSION

version 2.006002

## SYNOPSIS

```
  use 5.008;
  use GeoIP2::Model::AnonymousIP;
  my $anon = GeoIP2::Model::AnonymousIP->new(
      raw => {
          is_anonymous        => 1,
          is_hosting_provider => 1,
          ip_address          => '24.24.24.24'
      }
  );
  print $anon->is_anonymous(), "\n";
```

## DESCRIPTION

This class provides a model for the data returned by the GeoIP2 Anonymous IP database.

## METHODS

This class provides the following methods:

### $anon-\>is\_anonymous()

Returns true if the IP address belongs to any sort of anonymous network.

### $anon-\>is\_anonymous\_vpn()

Returns true if the IP address is registered to an anonymous VPN provider. If a VPN provider does not register subnets under names associated with them, we will likely only flag their IP ranges using the `"is_hosting_provider"` attribute.

### $anon-\>is\_hosting\_provider()

Returns true if the IP address belongs to a hosting or VPN provider (see description of `"is_anonymous_vpn"` attribute).

### $anon-\>is\_public\_proxy()

Returns true if the IP address belongs to a public proxy.

### $anon-\>is\_tor\_exit\_node()

Returns true if the IP address is a Tor exit node.

### $anon-\>ip\_address()

Returns the IP address used in the lookup.
