Ah, makes sense, yes port 23 is getting blocked at the border, hence Bro
wouldn't be seeing any traffic to port 23... :)
Disabled the scan.bro file. Is there any other script(s) that can be used
in place of scan.bro , i.e scan-NG would also have same effect as well?
Thanks Justin for the help to troubleshoot the issue, will keep an eye on
the sensors for any performance hit for next 24 hours.
