Good day folks.  This morning an admin asked us to check on a large amount
of traffic targeting several DNS servers in our network (both our own DNS
servers and customer co-located DNS servers).  In looking at the traffic I
see that the source is making several queries a second for DNS root.  I have
included a small sample from tcpdump below.  Not sure what the motive is
here.  The TTLs are all 235.  The random source ports makes me think
possibly spoofed traffic.  I can put packet dumps up on a website in libpcap
format if anyone is interested.  They are still going on as I type this.

Thanks for any insight you can lend.
