Just wondering if anyone else is seeing huge random
floods of traffic from:
inetnum: 202.96.51.128 - 202.96.51.255
netname: MICROSOFT-CO
descr: Microsft (China) Co.Ltd
country: CN
admin-c: CH455-AP
tech-c: SY21-AP

On a nearly daily basis we see them randomly open
thousands of connections from a variety of addresses
in that block to multiple servers. I've emailed
of coruse but that results in nothing. Probably
will just end up blocking them.
Thanks,
David
