Security Incidents: Port 2492

["Bobby, Paul" <paul.bobby () lmco com>]

Had a user log in from home and start SYN sweeping on port 2492 to various addresses, 10.10.x.x,10.11.x.x, 192.x.x.x, 
137.x.x.x and so forth.

The port is close to bagle, but I don't think it is that. The only port reference I could find was the Groove 
collaboration software. I haven't spoken with the user yet, but the target addresses (about 40 of them) don't look 
'groove'like.
