I think dns is needed, though I don't know much about that beyond the
superficial.

I did a tcpdump to screen and did not recognize much besides my own
address. Then I started doing a dump to file. But not knowing what was
happening, I then did ifdown eth0.
(I just now did ifup eth0, and the activity seems to have passed for the
moment.)
Neither dump is all that long (a few seconds each). Here is both of them:
(turns out to have been 90K, even tho it is only about 60 seconds of
activity)
