Summary
Eviny Fiber AS (formerly BKK Bredbånd)
isp legacy
Eviny-AS8542 is held by Eviny Fiber AS in Bergen, western Norway. Eviny is the renewable-energy group formerly called BKK, and its fibre arm has traded over the years as BKK Bredbånd, BKK Fiber, BKK Digitek and Eviny Digital. The old brand is still stamped on the addresses: every sampled PTR sits under bkkb.no.
What it's used for
Broadband access across Vestland. The AS announces about 129,000 IPv4 addresses over nine prefixes — a substantial regional eyeball footprint rather than a corporate or hosting network — with roughly seven observed BGP neighbours.
The reverse DNS is reversed-octet end-user naming: 1.85-200-0.bkkb.no, 0.213-153-16.bkkb.no, one hostname per address across whole /16 and /18 blocks. That per-address, sequentially-generated pattern is the fingerprint of a subscriber access network.
Notable
- A Norwegian power utility running the local fibre network is a common pattern (as in Japan), and here it produced a real consumer ISP rather than a purely industrial one.
- The retail side is in motion: Eviny's telecom business has been consolidating with Lyse / Altibox, with Eviny Digital's customers migrating to the Altibox platform and Eviny's own role moving toward pure infrastructure. The addresses may follow that reorganisation over time.
- The
ASin Eviny Fiber AS is Norwegian aksjeselskap — a limited company — not "autonomous system".

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-18, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 443 networks and 1,784 prefixes, as published 2026-10-19. 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.
