Unclassified ARIN
Summary
University of Tennessee at Chattanooga
education research infrastructure
A block whose netname says internal answers publicly, and the one block that is not the university's answers under a local electric utility's domain.
What it's used for
- A university campus network. 33,280 addresses across three IPv4 prefixes plus one IPv6 prefix,
2620:ed:c000::/48, with two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable

74.205.132.0/24failed, so its registration is unknown. - Every one of the nine sampled addresses returned a name. The university's two blocks answer as
150-182-160-0.dynamic.utc.eduand192-30-208-64.dynamic.utc.edu. - The third block answers as
static-host-74-205-132-64.epbinternet.com.
Interesting
- A netname reading
UTC-INTERNALon a block that is publicly announced and publicly named is a label describing intent at registration time, not reachability now. Registry text ages; routing does not. - Both university blocks are called
dynamicregardless of size, so the zone is generated wholesale rather than reflecting how any given address is assigned. The third calls itselfstatic-host, which is the same shortcut taken from the opposite direction. - That third domain belongs to a municipal electric utility that also sells internet service. A campus taking a second upstream from the local power company shows up here as a
/24sitting inside somebody else's naming scheme. - Two neighbours on a campus of this size is the usual university shape: a shared research network first, a commercial path second for everything the research network will not carry.

Interconnection
Peering at a glance
Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-20, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 442 networks and 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-21. 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.
