About this network

WITT-AS-AP is operated by Western Institute of Technology at Taranaki.

What it's used for

• The address space is registered under the netname SPARKNZ with registrant Spark New Zealand Trading Limited, indicating the IP allocation is held by the national telecommunications provider.
• The AS announces 512 IPv4 addresses within a single prefix (210.54.8.0/23) and maintains 2 observed routing neighbours, a ratio consistent with a small, dedicated site connection rather than a large access network.
• Traffic from this AS consists of institutional network traffic for a tertiary education provider, including student and staff access to academic resources, administrative systems, and research facilities.

Notable

• The RDAP registrant (Spark New Zealand Trading Limited) differs from the AS holder (Western Institute of Technology at Taranaki), reflecting the standard practice of educational institutions leasing IP space from their primary ISP.
• Western Institute of Technology at Taranaki merged with other institutions to form Te Pūkenga (New Zealand's tertiary education agency) on 1 April 2020, though the AS handle retains the original institutional name.
• The inventory consists of a single contiguous /23 block with no IPv6 prefixes announced.
