Greetings folks,
Pardon the operational content.

We just experienced a major amount (multi-megabit) of traffic coming from 136.244.96.104 going to the SAP/SDR multicast address and port (224.2.127.254/9875). All CPUs on our routers broke into a sweat as they tried to process this traffic. I verified this with fellow Canadian RAN Netera and CANARIE. CANARIE has since placed a filter against this address sending more traffic to our networks, but I was wondering if anyone else has felt this. Also if someone could track down the real owner of that IP and ask them to stop, that would be nice too. :-)

Thanks,
