I discovered on a couple of our border routers that we are being TCP
445 scanned from the following address:
192.21.100.243
which is not in our routing tables, or for that matter route-views.
For extra fun, looking up the RIPE inetnum object gives this "slightly"
large object:
inetnum: 93.169.24.0 - 193.169.25.255
netname: CENTRSVYAZ-NET
descr: Centrsvyaz CJSC
country: RU
org: ORG-CC43-RIPE
admin-c: VIP10-RIPE
tech-c: VIP10-RIPE
status: ASSIGNED PI
mnt-by: RIPE-NCC-HM-PI-MNT
mnt-lower: RIPE-NCC-HM-PI-MNT
mnt-by: MNT-CENTRSVYAZ
mnt-routes: MNT-CENTRSVYAZ
mnt-domains: MNT-CENTRSVYAZ
changed: hostmaster at ripe.net 20090515
source: RIPE
(the missing "1" is rather obvious)
Since the prefix isn't advertised, we drop this on our border routers.
But definitely something to be on the lookout for...
