    Not really bbs news, but had to post due to the coolness of it. Reminds me of Telehack.

    You might try splitting that big line by using \:

    for i in $(whois -h whois.radb.net -- '-i origin AS15169' \
    | grep "route:" | cut -d ":" -f2 | sed -e 's/^[ \t]*//' \
    | sort -n -t . -k 1,1 -k 2,2 -k 3,3 -k 4,4 \
    | cut -d ":" -f2 | sed 's/$//') ;

    That makes things much easier to read and all of that parses into a single line.

    snort might do what you want. For my BBS and its web server, I have a stringent iptables firewall and fail2ban as pfSense does not monitor open ports at all itself.

    I am wont to do things the hard way at times involving networking...
