Summary
University of Houston
education university research legacy
UNIVERSITY-OF-HOUSTON is the campus network of the University of Houston, the flagship of the UH System and a major public research university in Texas.
What it's used for
- Campus connectivity for students, faculty and staff: teaching and research computing, residence-hall networks, and the university's public-facing services.
- It announces
UH-NET— the legacy129.7.0.0/16— plus a192.138.19xpair and an IPv6/32.
Notable
- The
129.7.0.0/16allocation dates to 1987, well before the AS number itself. Universities were among the earliest institutions on the internet, and many still hold class-B-sized blocks from that period. - An institutional network, not an ISP: the address space serves one campus, so its addresses map to a single organisation rather than to paying subscribers.

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-28, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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 1,851 prefixes, as published 2026-10-29. 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.
