About this network

The campus network of Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois (ILLINOIS-STATE-UNIV), an early ARIN-registered ASN dating to 1996.

What it's used for

• Campus, academic, and administrative networking for Illinois State University.
• Announces a single legacy 138.87.0.0/16 — a full Class B assigned to the university, which is more than enough address space for a campus of its size.

Notable

• Institutional address space, not consumer broadband: expect student housing, labs, lecture halls, library systems, and university-run servers rather than residential subscribers.
• Registered to Administrative Technologies at Campus Box 3380 — the central IT organisation that runs the university's networking.

Interesting

• The university keeps its entire routed footprint inside one /16 with no IPv6 announced at the ASN level, a fairly conservative posture for a large public university.
