AS8229 KIBERNET-AS Budapest, Hungary
Unclassified RIPE
Summary
KiberNet
legacy
KIBERNET-AS belongs to KiberNet Kft., a small Budapest telecommunications company that has been registered in Hungary since the 1990s and is a member of the Hungarian ISP association. The AS is essentially dormant today.
What it's used for
- It announces no IPv4 at all. Its only route is a single IPv6 allocation,
2a0b:2542:900::/40, registered with the netnameKiberNet. - One observed BGP neighbour, no downstream networks, and no published reverse DNS.
Notable
- Carrying zero IPv4 means there is nothing to classify. An AS with no addresses in use cannot honestly be called an ISP, a host, or an enterprise network, whatever its holder once did, so it is left unclassified rather than forced into a kind.
- The company's registered filings show a very small business, consistent with a legacy ISP registration that survives mainly as an entry in the routing table.
- If the IPv6 block is ever populated, this AS is worth re-checking; today it is a legacy number kept alive by a minimal announcement.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
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: 442 networks and 1,773 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
