[luau] Help deciphering portscan entries in /var/log/messages

[Eric Hattemer]

Honestly, I know next to nothing about networking and try hard not to
learn any more than I absolutely need in life.  So I hope someone else
answers this question properly.  I think it could be possible that its
trying to use your system as a router to get to the 12.x device.  Either
that or its some tricky stealth scan that routes to you, but says its
routing to another address in order to trick you.  But yeah, I hope
someone else answers this with some expertise.
