    In this case, it may make sense to keep your traps on a honeypot box. I'm having
    a bit of a difficult time understanding exactly what you mean by 'hit my traps
    faster, so I can react faster'. React how? What would your reaction to a port
    scan be? If you cite an example, I'll probably have a much clearer idea about
    what kinds of traps you're talking about. :)
