Summary
University of San Diego
education research infrastructure
A single /24 announced as eight separate pieces, alongside a /31 and a /123.
What it's used for
- A university's network. 1,538 addresses across fourteen IPv4 prefixes, with two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
192.195.154.0is split into announcements at/25,/26,/27,/28,/29,/30and two at/31, each carrying the netnameUSD.137.164.41.104/31is registered toCENICunder the netnameCALREN.- The IPv6 announcement is a
/123, covering thirty-two addresses. - Two of eighteen sampled addresses answered, as
mymobilelb.sandiego.eduandbanprodxe.sandiego.edu.
Interesting
- Splitting one block into eight is the most extreme deaggregation in this range, and the sizes step down by half each time in the pattern a tool produces when told to cover a range exactly. Most networks filter announcements smaller than a
/24, so almost none of this reaches the wider internet. - The
/31is a point-to-point link to the regional research network, and the/123is a similarly tiny slice of IPv6. Neither is meant to travel; both are visible because the collector that built this inventory sees more than a distant router would. - One published name marks a production instance of the university's administrative system. Naming a student records host in public DNS tells an outsider what to aim at.
- Two neighbours for a university means transit arrives through the research network rather than from commercial carriers.

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 2026-10-31, 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: 447 networks and 1,845 prefixes, as published 2026-10-31. 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.
