Insight has a dirty DHCP server

Insight is now running a dirty DHCP Servers. The server sniffed by NAIDI during the last several months has been emitting malformed packets from all of it's DHCP controllers and servers in Louisville. This happens quite frequently with Insight.

 One of 275 reports.

The sniff began after several homes were attacked by malformed packets using port 53, a DHCP port. The sniffs took place between 8/15/2011 and 1/14/2012. Malformed packets causes unnecessary denial of service attacks
