For what it's worth I came across another server that the monitoring system
couldn't reach that crossed the interoute.net network (or didn't as it were
when the source port was 123).

The monitoring client uses a source port > 123, but the response will come
from port 123 so if it crossed the same network they might just block that.

Someone who's a customer (of a customer) of interoute needs to nag them to
undo it, I suspect.
