i set up vps for about 7 hours and i got bunch of iptable drop logs, exactly 141 , with different source ips, should i take some actions about it?

it a bit more than normal and each source ip is not repeated more than few times. i didnt do anything with the server yet! any idea? it is now 144 drops.

Welcome to the internet - it's a dark and unfriendly place - be afraid, be very very afraid.

Just kidding, normal background noise, nothing to see, nothing to worry about.

thanks, i just become worried because i dont have such a drop rate on one of my servers in other location. but as i think now that server was always inside a filtered internet zone, so i was never saw what could happen if all connections were forwarded to server.
