Summary

Florida Atlantic University

United States · AI-generated

education university legacy

The campus network of Florida Atlantic University, headquartered in Boca Raton with campuses along Florida's southeast coast.

What it's used for

  • Campus networking for teaching, research and student access. The reverse DNS splits into two patterns under fau.edu: net143n255 style names for statically addressed segments and dhcp111n254 for the pools that hand addresses out dynamically.

Notable

  • 28 IPv4 prefixes, all of them slices of a single 131.91.0.0/16 registered as FAU. The university holds one legacy class B and announces it in 28 pieces rather than as one route.
  • Only two observed BGP neighbours despite that fragmentation. The deaggregation is not about steering traffic between many upstreams; it is internal structure made visible in BGP.
  • No IPv6 announced.

Interesting

  • FAU operates across multiple campuses spread over a hundred miles of coastline, from Jupiter down to Fort Lauderdale and Dania Beach. Carving a class B into 28 announced pieces is what a geographically dispersed institution ends up doing when it has one address block and many separate sites to fit into it.

Classification and threat

Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.

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: 454 networks and 1,847 prefixes, as published 2026-11-11. 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.
