About this network

TEMPLE is the ASN of Temple University, a large public research university in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

What it's used for

• Campus networking across Temple's Philadelphia campuses: teaching, research, administration, student housing, and the university's health-sciences facilities.
• Announces a legacy IPv4 footprint of roughly 131,000 addresses (two /16-sized ranges' worth).

Notable

• University address space: expect campus hosts, research systems, library and departmental services, and student networks — an institutional profile, not a commercial or eyeball one.
• Temple is one of the larger public research universities in Pennsylvania, and the allocation size reflects a full-scale campus rather than a single site.

Interesting

• Temple's AS number sits in a tight cluster of Pennsylvania institutions — AS3777 (Haverford College), AS3782 (Swarthmore College) — a fossil of the regional-network era, when a state's campuses were connected as a batch.
