About this network
NevadaNet (NSHE-NEVADANET), the network of the Nevada System of Higher Education — the statewide body governing Nevada's public universities and colleges.
What it's used for
- Connecting the state's public institutions, including the University of Nevada campuses, community colleges, and the Desert Research Institute.
- About 164,000 IPv4 addresses supporting campus, research, and administrative networking across the system.
Notable
- This is an institutional network: addresses belong to campuses, labs, and university services rather than to individual paying subscribers.
- NevadaNet functions as the state's research and education backbone, the role that regional and state R&E networks play in most of the US.
Interesting
- The ASN was registered with ARIN in 1994 — the era when state higher-education systems, rather than commercial ISPs, were the entities building out regional internet infrastructure.
