Hi,

I am running Gnatbox Light 3.01 and mave enabled the alarm messages to report 
possible problems with the firewall.

One of the reports that I get a lot looks like this:
    ALARM NO: 1
         DATE: Monday, Feb 21, 2000
         TIME: 13:27:51
    INTERFACE: EXT (ep0)
   ALARM TYPE: Block
    IP PACKET: UDP  [212.187.100.212/2301]-->[255.255.255.255/2301]  l=12
               c187100212.telekabel.chello.nl/2301]-->[255.255.255.255/2301]

The IP address of the sender of the packet differs, but I see a lot of messages 
on port 2301, directed to 255.255.255.255/2301.

I have looked everywhere, but have found no explanation of what port 2301 is 
used for. Can anybody tell me what is going on here, and if I should be worried 
about this ?
