doing

Very Intresting read, Thanks Chris.
I have a odd number port but I still get a lot of logs showing a lot
of different countries. This wasnt what I expected being on a port
thats not very common.

I just wanted to see what others do, I have ample protection so it was
just for a discussion!
Thanks Sam


Bye for now...
