AS11694 Universidad Simon Bolivar

AS11694 is held by Universidad Simón Bolívar, the public science and engineering

university in Caracas, Venezuela (Sartenejas campus). It is a single-institution campus

network.

What it's used for

• Campus connectivity for the university: teaching, research, administration and student services. RIS sees exactly one prefix, 159.90.0.0/16 (65,536 addresses), with 1 observed neighbour.

Notable

• One /16 behind one upstream is the classic academic profile of an institution that was allocated generous class-B space early and has never needed to fragment or multihome it. The single neighbour is decisive against any provider reading: a network that resold connectivity would have to peer with more than one party to be useful, and this one does not.
• USB has historically been one of Venezuela's principal academic network sites, and a university-sized /16 announced as a single aggregate is consistent with a campus that numbers labs, departments and student networks out of one block rather than buying space piecemeal.

Interesting

• RDAP for 159.90.0.0/16 did not resolve in this evidence pass, so the prefix's registrant record could not be confirmed independently. That is a failed lookup, not a finding — it neither confirms nor contradicts the holder, and nothing on this card rests on it. The identification comes from the AS holder record and the single-aggregate, single-upstream routing shape, both of which point the same way.
• No IPv6 is announced, which is unusual for a research university of this size and hints that the campus network has not been through a modernisation pass recently.
