#931 nHaystack Network Traffic

David Christiansen Wed 23 Jun 2021

Does the nHaystack module "phone home" when it is enabled for the first time? Some network traffic was flagged as being suspicious activity immediately after the Niagara station rebooted and nHaystack was enabled for the first time.

The flagged IP address is "128.14.209.162".

Hi David,

No, there is no "phone home" functionality in nhaystack. Since nhaystack is an open source module I'm not really sure where it would phone home to! :)

The code is publicly available and you are free to comb through it to see if we are doing anything that doesn't satisfy the requirements of your projects.

Cheers,

Richard
