Summary

Te Pukenga - New Zealand Institute of Skills and Technology

New Zealand · AI-generated

education polytechnic nz

OTAGOPOLY-AS-NZ-AP is held by Te Pukenga - New Zealand Institute of Skills and Technology.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries institutional traffic for a tertiary education provider, identified by the netname OTAGOPOLY and registrant IRT-OTAGOPOLY-NON-NZ.
  • The AS announces 2048 IPv4 addresses within a single prefix (202.49.0.0/21) and maintains 1 observed neighbour, indicating a small, self-contained internal network rather than a transit or large-scale access provider.
  • Traffic consists of staff, student, and administrative endpoints across the institution's campuses in Dunedin, Cromwell, and Auckland.

Notable

  • The RDAP registrant Te Pukenga - New Zealand Institute of Skills and Technology aligns with the current legal entity, while the AS handle retains the historical name OTAGOPOLY.
  • Otago Polytechnic was part of Te Pukenga, which was disestablished into 10 regional polytechnics effective 1 January 2026; the AS reflects the pre-restructuring identity.
  • The inventory consists of a single contiguous /21 block with no IPv6 prefixes announced.

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: 443 networks and 1,784 prefixes, as published 2026-10-19. 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.
