Could be one of your users using VPN?

*Subject:* [EZPROXY-L] Unexpected EZProxy traffic from DigitalOcean IP
addresses



We keep an eye on EZProxy sessions from disparate IP addresses, and I've
recently seen quite a few successful connections originating from
DigitalOcean (cloud provider) addresses in Europe. Has anyone else seen
this?



The logs seem to show legitimate traffic, in other words, no page-by-page
downloading, and the requests have reasonable delays between them. None of
the addresses have exceeded our download limits, and I'm also not seeing
failed logins from them. I'm thinking it could be something similar to the
Google proxy addresses we see now and then.



Some of the addresses we're seeing are - in case you'd like to check your
logs:



197.229.0.73

197.229.0.11

197.229.0.50

197.229.0.116

198.211.120.118

197.229.2.49

197.229.2.82

197.229.2.103

197.229.2.92



Any insight is appreciated.
