Foil 5 Unknown IP Addresses

From Summary of Database Storage and Search of Web Logs at ARL Review ARL End of Year 2 Review Aberdeen Sheraton 4 Points -- July 29-30 98. by Jake Kim, Deepak Ramanathan
Roughly 30% of accesses to the NPAC site are from hosts whose hostname is an IP address. This accounts for nearly 1200 entries a day.
Rather than put these IP's down as unknown, we decided to create a database of resolved IP's with their Organizational Information.
This permits us to identify with a moderate degree of certainty the network location of an IP address
