Summary
University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
education university research legacy
UW-MILWAUKEE-AS1 is the autonomous system of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Wisconsin's largest public research university outside Madison.
What it's used for
- Campus networking for UWM: academic departments, research groups, administrative systems, student residences and public-facing university services.
- The AS announces the university's
129.89.0.0/16legacy Class B along with a couple of smaller blocks and an IPv6 prefix.
Notable
- Reverse DNS across the space resolves under
uwm.edu, confirming an institutional campus network rather than a commercial provider. - A Class B allocation plus a low AS number is the standard fingerprint of a US university that connected in the early days of the academic internet, when address space was handed out generously to institutions.
