I believe it would be really useful to include it as a standard component. The provided alerts are very useful and - since, unfortunately, we lack an security system that would automatically block such botnet scanning - when we notice increased botnet activity, we manually block the associated IP address(es) in a router ACL. This, and the ability to display info about the protocols talked (by particular IP addresses), as I have requested in another thread, expands nfsen virtues to network security monitoring. In that aspect, nfsen could be even more developed to analyze network behavioral patterns and alert administrators on possible threats, so they can examine in more detail. (That would be a killer feature, though I realize it is more complex to implement.)
