Hello all,
While recently trying to debug a CEF issue, I found a good number of packets in my "debug cef drops" output that were all directed at 198.32.64.12 (which I see as being allocated to ep.net but completely unused).

Now, as nearly as I can tell, this IP address has never been used for anything, but I see occasional references to it, such as here:
Once upon a time, that used to be the IP address for the L Root server. Steve
