Summary
Bydgoszcz University of Science and Technology — Bydgoszcz MAN
education university legacy
PL-BYDMAN-EDU is held by Politechnika Bydgoska im. Jana i Jędrzeja Śniadeckich (the Bydgoszcz University of Science and Technology). The university operates BYDMAN, the metropolitan academic network for the city of Bydgoszcz, and this AS carries both the campus and that MAN.
What it's used for
- Campus networking for the university itself. Reverse DNS in
212.122.208.0/21resolves underatr.bydgoszcz.pl,utp.edu.plandpbs.edu.pl— three generations of the same institution's domain, as it was renamed from ATR to UTP to Politechnika Bydgoska. - The Bydgoszcz MAN (
man.bydgoszcz.pl), which connects other academic and public institutions in the city. Much of82.146.224.0/19carriesnat-SUBNET-HOST.man. bydgoszcz.plnaming, so a good part of that space is carried behind NAT. - Around 22k addresses across five prefixes, with a handful of downstream neighbours typical of a MAN operator serving city institutions.
Notable
- Academic and institutional, not consumer. The NAT pools are university and member-institution users, not retail broadband subscribers. Addresses here should be attributed to Bydgoszcz academic institutions rather than to households.
- The old
atr.bydgoszcz.plandutp.edu.plhostnames are still live in reverse DNS. They are the same university under earlier names, not separate organisations.
Interesting
- Poland's academic networking was built as a federation of city MANs, each usually run by the leading local technical university and each holding its own low AS number. This is Bydgoszcz's, and it sits alongside siblings like Kraków's AS8323.

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: 431 networks and 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. 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.
