Hi Taavi,

# tcpdump -vpni eth0 'host 212.13.19X.Y'

I've had a quick look and it seems to mostly just be random useless
traffic. You could avoid being warned again by removing the IP
address entirely:

# ip addr del 212.13.19X.Y dev eth0

(then remove from network configuration so it doesn't come back next
time you boot)

Cheers,
Andy
