AS10176 DJE-AS-KR Daejon Metropolitan Office of Education

DJE-AS-KR is held by the Daejeon Metropolitan Office of Education, the public

authority that runs the state kindergarten, primary, middle and high schools of

Daejeon. Korea's sixteen provincial and metropolitan education offices each

operate their own school network, and this is Daejeon's.

What it's used for

• The school-district backbone: internet access and filtered browsing for classrooms and school computer labs, staff administration, and the district's own portals and student-information systems.

Notable

• The kind is education, and the numbers show a district rather than a single campus. RIS observes 34 IPv4 prefixes and 27,648 addresses behind one neighbour. A lone upstream rules out any carrier or wholesale role; nobody sells transit through a single link. But 27k addresses across 34 prefixes is far too much for one office building, and the fragmentation into many /22s and /24s is exactly what you get when address space is carved up per site. Each school gets its own slice.
• The blocks themselves confirm the long institutional history: a legacy 210.111.224.0/19, 211.253.176.0/20, and clusters such as 14.50.176.0–14.50.200.0 and 210.95.x, accumulated over decades of KRNIC allocations as schools were connected.

Interesting

• The AS is functionally a small ISP whose subscribers are schools. It is government-run, but its traffic profile is educational, which is why education is the honest label rather than government.
