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.

Did I misunderstand what you are asking? It seems that you're confused that people are actually using your mirror.
