If you are referring to University of Michigan. They would actually be
using those IP's they have Thousands of Dialups in the State. I would
assume they are one in the Same as Merit...

I can tell you look at their modems just once that floor to ceiling PM3's
on 25 racks.. That was just for the Flint area of michigan.. They have
more of those all over.. Here in the town I am at they have 1000 modems.

If they are not part of the Merit Pool then UofM does NOT need them if
they are partly merits then they do.. However of all the areas that will
eventually grow into their space the schools are the ones.. Corp entities
are moving the oposite way with NAT and Firewalls..
