About this network

UTK is the University of Tennessee, the state's flagship public university, centred on its Knoxville campus.

What it's used for

• Campus networking for students, faculty, and staff: residence halls, teaching and lab networks, administrative systems, and the university's public web services.
• Research computing and data movement for the university's science programmes.

Notable

• This is institutional academic address space with a sizeable footprint, reflecting a large public research university rather than a small college.
• A low four-digit AS number places the registration in the era when US research universities were among the earliest organisations to run their own autonomous systems.

Interesting

• The Knoxville campus sits close to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and the university has long-running joint research ties with the lab, which puts real scientific data movement behind this ASN.
