About this network

TAMU is the network of Texas A&M University, the flagship land-grant research university in College Station, Texas.

What it's used for

• Campus networking for one of the largest universities in the United States: academic buildings, residence halls, research labs, and administration.
• Research and high-performance computing traffic, plus connectivity out to regional and national research networks.

Notable

• Announces roughly 131,000 IPv4 addresses (about two /16s), a large institutional allocation reflecting both the size of the student body and how early the university built out its network.
• Texas A&M's system extends well beyond the main campus, including engineering and agricultural extension agencies across the state.

Interesting

• A low four-digit AS number puts Texas A&M among the American universities that were on the internet's backbone networks well before commercial ISPs existed.
