Summary
Universidad de los Andes
education research legacy
The network of the Universidad de los Andes (Uniandes), a private research university in Bogotá, Colombia. It announces the legacy 157.253.0.0/16 block long associated with the university.
What it's used for
- Campus networking in Bogotá: teaching, research, labs, libraries, and administrative systems.
- University-hosted services and academic connectivity for students and staff.
Notable
- Institutional address space — a full
/16held by a single university, which is generous by modern standards and typical of allocations made before IPv4 scarcity set in. - Hosts behind it are campus machines and university users, not broadband subscribers or hosting customers.
Interesting
- Colombian universities were among the country's earliest internet participants, and the resources are now administered through LACNIC, the Latin American and Caribbean registry, which inherited the region's early ARIN-era allocations.

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 2026-10-11, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 432 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
