I've had a lot of scans to my internal network to port  12345
since past december 15.  It's quite normal for me to see scans
looking for NetBus at 12345, but this time scans have been
quite intensive. The time between consecutive packets it's 5
seconds, and these are some sample logs I have:

As you see, the other strange pattern is that most of scans come from
APNIC assigned addresses. Unfortunately, I don't have any "raw sessions"
records from my  IDS right now, but I have reconfigured it to record future
sessions.

Do you have any ideas about it?

Regards.
