AS8475 UUST

UUST is registered to the Ufa University of Science and Technology, the large

public university in Ufa, Bashkortostan, formed in November 2022 by merging

Bashkir State University with Ufa State Aviation Technical University.

What it's used for

• Campus networking for the merged university: faculty and departmental systems, student labs, library and administrative services.
• Hosting for university web, mail and DNS.

Notable

• A small institutional footprint: about 1,000 IPv4 addresses across three prefixes, with a single upstream. Universities of this size in Russia typically reach the internet through a regional academic provider rather than buying transit themselves.
• The holder name changed with the 2022 merger; the AS number and its address blocks predate it, so registry records from before then carry the old institution's name.

Interesting

• The neighbouring [AS8480](https://asn.ipinfo.app/AS8480) is registered to the same university under the USATU-AS handle, a leftover of Ufa State Aviation Technical University's separate existence. Two adjacent AS numbers, two handles, one institution.
