I run a software that watches the log book. It's called "Fail2Ban".
I have it watch many system logs including JNOS. I have it set to look for
3 failed attempts from the same IP address and then it bans that IP address
for a month.
It must ban at least 20-30 ip addresses a day. Most are from China.

I would say it is very expected to see all sorts of assaults on your
machines (bruteforcing, exploit attempts, etc). The Internet is constantly
bombarded with this stuff. It reminds you of why it is important to set up
your systems security right with things like SSH certificate
authentication, router ACLs, or firewalls.
For your situation, I would recommend writing an ACL that allows telnet (if
you use it) from just IPs you trust. Actually, I think you should drop ALL
packets to telent, personally, and use SSH in lieu of that.
Remember that these are public IP addresses, unprotected from any NAT you
may be used to!
