Checked the syslogs yesterday and found some really odd traffic that burst out of nowhere. It looks like someone tried to mask their origin but the header details gave him away. Could be a bot herding attack or maybe a misconfigured proxy gate doing weird stuff. I need to sit down with more coffee and sort this crap out before it hits the fan.
