Summary
Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)
education university research legacy
AS10715 belongs to the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, the federal university in Florianópolis, southern Brazil. RIS observes 9 announced IPv4 prefixes covering roughly 73,728 addresses, 3 IPv6 prefixes, and a single BGP neighbour.
What it's used for
This is a campus network in the classic sense. The bulk of the space is 200.135.0.0/16 — announced both as the full /16 and as its two constituent /17s — plus smaller blocks in 200.18.0.0/20 and 200.19.96.0/20. Sampled reverse DNS shows exactly what you would expect: cliente-200-135-64-5.wireless.ufsc.br is a templated name from the university's campus wireless pool, so the space is carrying students, staff and their devices. The IPv6 holding is a full /32 announced alongside its two /33 halves, which is a serious deployment rather than a token one.
Notable
The other reverse-DNS name is the more interesting one: mon3.pop-sc.rnp.br places RNP's Santa Catarina point of presence inside this address space. RNP is Brazil's national research and education network, and its state-level PoPs are hosted at partner universities. So UFSC is not just an RNP customer — it houses the regional PoP itself, which explains the single observed neighbour: the university's only route to the wider internet is through the national academic backbone that terminates on its own campus.
Interesting
Announcing a /16, both /17s, and the same pattern of overlapping aggregates in IPv6 suggests deliberate route redundancy or multi-site policy rather than untidiness — a university with several campuses stitched into one AS.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-18, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 442 networks and 1,784 prefixes, as published 2026-10-19. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
