education university research legacy
MEMORIALU is the autonomous system of Memorial University of Newfoundland, the province's public university, based in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador.
What it's used for
AS6579 carries traffic for the university's campuses. It originates the university's 134.153.0.0/16 alongside 208.85.80.0/22, 209.205.240.0/20 and a few smaller legacy blocks, roughly 71,000 IPv4 addresses. Reverse DNS resolves under mun.ca, including hosts in the cc.mun.ca computing-and-communications domain.
Notable
This is an institutional address: students, faculty, staff, campus wireless, labs and university-hosted services all sit behind it. As Newfoundland and Labrador's only university, Memorial is also a significant research site, and its network connects onward through Canada's national research and education networking infrastructure.
The classic 134.153.0.0/16 is a legacy Class B, the standard shape of a university allocation from the pre-CIDR era. ARIN's ASN record dates to May 1996.
