These are IANA IP addresses used for automatic IP addressing, as Ryan has mentioned, here's the 'evidence' !

Subject: [FW1] 169.254.X.X ip addresses in state table

I have been getting a lof of errors in my event log with some ip addresses that do not belong to my network:
 
169.254.X.X
 
when i type in fw tab -t host_table > lichost.txt
 
I can see that the src ip is 169.254.X.X and destination to somewhere on the internet.
 
Any idea of what and where this ip address is coming from?
 
 
Thanks
