I noticed that all connections from my Netvision-based host to university hosts were made through the same router ILAN-IIX.iix.net.il. (ILAN stands for Israely Academic Network I think). Does that mean that all the universities hosts are connected to ILAN, which has only one gateway to the IIX and there are no direct connections whatsoever between an academic server and a provider's one?
