Summary
US Department of Defense
government military legacy
A US Department of Defense network registered as DNIC-AS-03954 through the DoD
Network Information Center (DNIC).
What it's used for
- US government and military network operations. The registration identifies only the Department of Defense; the specific site, command, or unit behind it is not publicly stated.
Notable
- A government network, not a commercial ISP or hosting provider. The DoD holds a large number of ASNs registered under
DNIC-*handles, many of them in the low-numbered range from the internet's early years — a legacy of the military's role in funding and building the ARPANET.
