Hi Brian,
Thanks for your response. I am glad that people are using my mirror. But I am not sure whether these are legitimate request. All request is only fetching repomd.xml and urlgrabber attached to it from randomized IP.
If it is normal behavior, than it is ok. I am also hosting other public mirror, but there is no such http request for those flavors.

If your mirror is public (and listed with CentOS), then you're going to see traffic from random hosts.. that's kind of the point of the mirror.
Did I misunderstand what you are asking? It seems that you're confused that people are actually using your mirror.

Hi,
In my CentOS mirror server I am getting huge HTTP request from random IP's. Bellow are few sample logs:

That is completely normal. Yum checks routinely for an updated repomd.xml file (it's pretty small as you can see). If it has changed, then yum knows it may need to update something. If it hasn't changed, there's nothing to update. Yum keeps a cached copy of that file locally for a day to a week depending on what the repo definition tells it to do, so it won't fetch the same file twice for one system within that expiry timeout.
