We can confirm being hit by 27.221.66.0/24 pulling the same iso as well.  What action was taken to address this by your networks?

Thanks,

Have you noticed that in your mirrors? look for these IP and notice if they have been trying to continously download iso

We did encounter the same issues with the same IP addresses and same iso file. Till now I thought it was an isolated issue..
