Hi

Can someone tell me what would cause this:

00:01:02:50:b8:9e:08:00:20:a5:04:26:08:00

The MAC address in the ll header is the interface on my firewall.

Any help would be appreciated

1. Do you recognise the address 108.122.0.0 ?   Is it an address you use on 
your network, or in your rules ?

2. What client / server processes do you have running on firefly ?

3. What SNAT rules do you have in your OUTPUT or POSTROUTNG chains ?

4. What addresses do you have assigned to the interfaces on firefly ?

You might want ot add some LOGging rules to your INPUT or OUTPUT chains to 
look for this source address, and see what protocol is in the packets - that 
might help to identify what service is generatng them.

I know this isn't an answer to your question, but I hope it helps you find 
out the answer...

Antony.

Never write it in Perl if you can do it in Awk.
Never do it in Awk if sed can handle it.
Never use sed when tr can do the job.
Never invoke tr when cat is sufficient.
Avoid using cat whenever possible.

so I assume 00:01:02:50:b8:9e is the macaddress of your interface?
(destination mac in the frame)

the packet is sent from 08:00:20:a5:04:26 with 127.0.0.23 as sourceip
(loopback ip), try to find out which machine on your network that is.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat
you with experience.
