Summary
Universidad Veracruzana
education university research legacy
The Universidad Veracruzana is a large public university in the Mexican state of
Veracruz, with its main campus in Xalapa and regional campuses across the state.
What it's used for
- Campus networking for teaching, research and administration across the university's multiple regional campuses.
- Announces around 45,000 addresses, essentially all of
148.226.0.0/16sliced into more than 170 mostly-/24prefixes — a de-aggregated legacy Class B.
Notable
- Reverse DNS resolves under
uv.mx(for examplens2.uv.mx), the university's own domain. - The heavy de-aggregation of a single
/16into scores of/24announcements is typical of a multi-site institution that routes each campus or faculty network separately rather than as one summarised block.
Interesting
- A full
/16and a four-digit AS number reflect how early Mexico's large public universities connected — they were among the first organisations in the country on the internet, and were allocated address space accordingly.
