Summary
Ringling College of Art and Design
education university legacy
RINGLING is the campus network of Ringling College of Art and Design, a private art and design college in Sarasota, Florida.
What it's used for
- Campus connectivity for the college: studios, computer labs, residence halls, administrative systems, and its public web services. Reverse DNS on the space resolves under
ringling.edu.
Notable
- An institutional network. The announced
216.38.176.0/20is registered directly to the college under theRINGLING-EDUnetname, and the addresses serve students, faculty, and staff rather than customers. - Ringling's programs are heavy on computer animation, game art, and motion design, so the campus carries an unusually render- and storage-intensive workload for a college of its size.
- The AS number dates to June 1996, part of the same sequential run of registrations as its numeric neighbours.

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: 448 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-10-30. 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.
