Summary
US Department of Defense
government military legacy
A US Department of Defense network from the block DNIC-ASBLK-05120-05376,
registered to the DoD Network Information Center (DNIC).
What it's used for
- US government / military networking. It originates a pair of
/24s from215.0.0.0/8, one of the DoD's reserved/8s.
Notable
- A government / military network, not a commercial ISP or host.
- The generic DNIC block registration doesn't name a specific base or unit.
- A very small routing footprint — two
/24s — which is common for DoD ASNs that exist to serve one site or one system.
Interesting
- The Department of Defense holds several entire
/8s (including214/8and215/8). Address space there is unambiguously military, which makes it easy to identify even without registry lookups.
