Scans

Several of the firewalls I monitor have been scanned for TCP 2766 and UDP 2140.  The scan for 2140 always has a source 
port of 60000, while the source port for 2766 varies.

I researched the ports and could find nothing on 2140.  2766 comes up as Compaq SCP which seems to have something to do 
with Compaq GIGAswitches and the "switch control processor".  Anyone know what they might be looking for?

Cleansed logs are,
