    I've just realized ip-proto-55 was one of the possible vectors for the
    latest Cisco IOS vulnerability, so it is possible that this particular
    aspect of the observed traffic is just a DoS attempt.
    
    The observed traffic seems to be considerably different from what is
    generated by the publicly available exploit (shadowchode, see
    http://www.netsys.com). This one generates considerably shorter packets
    with no payload, and increases TTL subsequently, see previous post:
    
    22:53:00.340000 80.50.156.4 > 195.117.3.59: ip-proto-55 0 (ttl 2, id
    60107)
    
    	4500 0014 eacb 0000 0237 1b01 5032 9c04
            c375 033b 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
            0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 035a 383d
    
    I've isolated the packet, could anyone test
    http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/mine.c against a vulnerable Cisco?
    
    Thanks again,
