Summary
Nebraska Public Power District
enterprise legacy
Nebraska Public Power District (NPPDNET), the publicly owned electric utility
that generates and transmits power across most of Nebraska.
What it's used for
- Corporate and operational networking for the utility — offices, generating stations, and transmission facilities.
- A single small block of 256 IPv4 addresses, the footprint of an organisation networking itself rather than serving customers.
Notable
- This is a utility corporate network: no subscribers sit behind it, so traffic from this range is a power company's own staff and systems.
- NPPD is a political subdivision of the State of Nebraska rather than an investor-owned company. Nebraska is unusual in the US for being served entirely by public power.
Interesting
- Utilities were early ASN holders because they already ran wide-area communications for grid operation, and hooking that to the internet in the mid-1990s was a short step.
