Hello group,
I am wondering if anyone else is seeing the following: starting on 5 March 2020 and continuing through the present I have detected a large spike in inbound traffic to several of my AMPR 44 IP addresses (on 44.50.1.0/24). The spike has been large enough that my logging ELK stack is struggling to keep up.
This traffic is coming from the public internet. Most of these are looking at standard ports 443, 80, 25, and 22.
These are being directed to IP addresses in my subnet that are not in use, and therefore are being dropped (but logged) at the firewall. Nothing is running on these IPs so there is no way the traffic is in response to anything I can find coming from my network.
I realize devices periodically scan the "entire internet" but this is more than that... in one day I saw 100,000 TCP SYN from a single public IP address. That is a significant spike and I am not certain why they sent so much traffic from a single IP to a single IP.
Wondering if anyone else is seeing the same?

Hi Shawn,
This is "pretty normal" (normal in a sence that I see this kind of traffic on all customer networks too when vacation times begin) Since the COVID-19 outbreak a lot of school have closed and ppl start working from home. But every time youngsters are on vacation, I see an increase in botnet/scans/hack traffic/attempts

Hi,
I tend to notice this happening after a subnet becomes routed a few weeks later. They are scanning for open SMTP relays and SSH access to brute force. It may be if your not using them two ports for anything ensuring they are closed as far up the chain as you can. I am in the process of moving mine from a VPS to a dedicated router which means i can kill the traffic at carrier level before i route it on to my locations.

A good number of folks have seen a spike in scans by botnets spoofing IPs but not just on 44-net. Commercial ISPs have seen similar spikes of traffic and have taken proactive measures to try and halt these brute force attacks.
Some of the spoofed IPs I've seen include the U.S. military, U.S. postal service, USDA, many universities and municipalities... to name a few. At one point I even caught a 222-net IP try to inject my DNS server with a bogus ampr.org zone file on my public IP. Of course it failed and my firewall bagged it.
The best you can do is tighten your firewall rules so that these spoofs do as little damage as possible.
Hi All,
First off, I would like to say my coordinator has been great when it comes to supporting me. As I know, he is still waiting for access to added DNS entries.
To complete my configuration Ubiquiti Edgerouter 10X, I need to have some DNS entries added and 1 correction DNS entries from my allocation. Is there anyone who could add them manually for now??
I would appreciate any help here!!

Hi Angelo,
I am not aware of any coordinators requesting access to the dns system, please ask him to email me if access is required and I can explain how.
In the meantime you can send any urgent requests to me if you like.

Chris and Angelo,
I think i got my login for dns sorted yesterday with the n1uro cgi script and login.
I have added the DNS entries this morning.
Chris, can you assist with verification that you can see the dns entries added for Angelo this morning? I am not sure of the time for it to populate.
I apologize for the delays. Angelo, I have my test router on the bench at the office this morning to verify configuration of the scripting and will reach out to you after I run a few tests.
Best Regards, Elias Kd5jfe Louisiana
