About this network

AS10715 belongs to the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, the federal university in Florianópolis, southern Brazil. RIS observes 9 announced IPv4 prefixes covering roughly 73,728 addresses, 3 IPv6 prefixes, and a single BGP neighbour.

What it's used for

This is a campus network in the classic sense. The bulk of the space is 200.135.0.0/16 — announced both as the full /16 and as its two constituent /17s — plus smaller blocks in 200.18.0.0/20 and 200.19.96.0/20. Sampled reverse DNS shows exactly what you would expect: cliente-200-135-64-5.wireless.ufsc.br is a templated name from the university's campus wireless pool, so the space is carrying students, staff and their devices. The IPv6 holding is a full /32 announced alongside its two /33 halves, which is a serious deployment rather than a token one.

Notable

The other reverse-DNS name is the more interesting one: mon3.pop-sc.rnp.br places RNP's Santa Catarina point of presence inside this address space. RNP is Brazil's national research and education network, and its state-level PoPs are hosted at partner universities. So UFSC is not just an RNP customer — it houses the regional PoP itself, which explains the single observed neighbour: the university's only route to the wider internet is through the national academic backbone that terminates on its own campus.

Interesting

Announcing a /16, both /17s, and the same pattern of overlapping aggregates in IPv6 suggests deliberate route redundancy or multi-site policy rather than untidiness — a university with several campuses stitched into one AS.
