Did you run a sniffer to get an idea of what all the traffic is? Curious what, if any, port(s) are being flooded.

We had no traffic coming in or out of the campus. We're unsure of whether it's virus related, but wanted to inquire if anyone else has heard of or came across something similar. It appears to be an DDOS attack, but, originating from the inside. This started last night at about 10pm EST. Thanks, -jack
