Default Some 'diff' connections

I just did a netstat and host amsterdam3-dhcp53.cisco.com was trying to connect to 6347. I dont have LimeWire running at the moment but I understand why I still get hits but the thing I'm getting out is a host from cisco.com is trying to connect to me :x
That host resolves to the ip address 144.254.51.102. Then when you ping it you get another host 64.103.36.99 telling you destination unreachable and that host resolves to ams-clip-wall2-g1-0-0.cisco.com. So I'm guessing the second host is a firewall of course, because of the destination unreachable b/c its blocking access to that host from you. You could say ok maybe its just a host on cisco.com's network.... Ok but look at the hostname it has the text 'dhcp" in it, I mean usually you wouldnt run file-sharing services on a dhcp machine and besides that its on the cisco.com network! Just thought it was sorta weird and thought I would post something about it.
