[nos-bbs] polling?

[Jim Fuller (N7VR)]

Actually Maiko,

You have, as every gateway has, access to the gateway list of stations their
locations and information. It is a file called 'gateways' in the gateways
FTP. You may have just forgotten about it.

All I did was try and find a contact for a situation that I felt was a bit
of an emergency. My system was getting more traffic then it usually expects.
Russ was getting the same. From an internet point of view the traffic is
negligible, but when it starts to traverse radio channels, it can be a bit
too much. I saw this as a probe, something I felt I needed to bring to the
attention of the rest of the AMPRnet people so that they could deal with it.
It was unexpected. I did the same thing I would do as a regular network
admin here at work.

Unfortunately sometimes we have to go to the lists to find out who is
responsible for a certain subnet, so that is what I did.

Rafal was kind enough to come online and *fix* it, BUT, unfortunately as I
type this, I am still getting SNMP probes and such, so I've decided to use
iptables on my FORWARD chain to drop anymore packets from his system
(FORWARD because my packets to JNOS do eth0 <-> tun0) :

    iptables -A FORWARD -s <gateway ip addr> -j LOG
    iptables -A FORWARD -s <gateway ip addr> -j DROP
    tail -f /var/log/syslog

I don't have JNOS IP ACCESS compiled in, so I've opted for iptables.
