This weekend I received a call from the service provider of one of my office locations, rather shitty call from the (alleged) owner. At any rate, after getting past his extremely rude behavior we determined the LaBrea was doing exactly what it was written for, which is to virtually sit on unused IP addresses and waste cpu time of the offending machine. However what we found out was that LaBrea was not releasing the IP's. The ISP informed me that the way their Cisco router was configured did not allow an 'explore' function of LaBrea to work. Unfortunately I did not have time make a backup of my logs before I had to turn of LaBrea, and then reboot, but there were a number of entries labeled 'tear dropping'. At any rate, the ISP had temporarily disconnected my service and after nearly (seriously) driving over to the office and looking for someone's ass to kick they finally turned my link back on so I could disable the package.
Firstly, has anyone else encountered any mishaps w/ a provider, or problems running LaBrea. Another question, is it possible to throttle back some of the features of LaBrea to be less productive. And lastly, is there another way to block and/or reduce the number of attacks overall?
