Summary
Fundación InnovaT (InnovaRed)
education research legacy
Fundación InnovaT, based in Buenos Aires, operates InnovaRed —
Argentina's national research and education network, connecting universities and
research institutions to each other and to the wider academic internet.
What it's used for
- Backbone connectivity for Argentine universities and research institutes.
- International research links, letting Argentine academics reach peer NRENs and research networks abroad.
- Announcing the legacy
168.96.0.0/16block long associated with Argentina's academic and scientific networking.
Notable
- A research and education network (NREN), not a commercial ISP. Its customers are institutions, so the traffic profile is academic rather than consumer.
- Like most NRENs it is comparatively small in address count but strategically central: a lot of a country's university traffic passes through one of these.
Interesting
- National research networks were often a country's first internet connection, which is why so many of them hold AS numbers this far down the range.
