Well, you are trying to suggest ways to prevent this from happening. And 
no, VMS do not have iptables, as far as I know.
When you are looking for is essentially a way to block some ranges of 
addresses. That can be done in a router, or sometimes switch. Quite 
possible I'll look into that. But that don't answer my current question, 
how to fix the current state on the VMS system. And no, I do not 
consider "reboot" to be the solution. :-)

Yeah... No... Not going there.
