Summary
Portland Public Schools
education legacy
The network of Portland Public Schools, the K-12 school district serving Portland,
Oregon, registered under the handle PPS.
What it's used for
- Networking for district schools and administration: classroom and lab machines, student and staff devices, and the district's own services. The AS announces a single
159.191.0.0/16, a full Class B, for the whole district.
Notable
- This is education space, but K-12 rather than higher education. Addresses here are used by school staff and by students, many of them minors, on district-managed devices behind district filtering.
- A
/16is a generous allocation for a school district, and reflects a mid-1990s ARIN assignment made when addresses were handed out far more freely than they are today.
