    here again ...

    I don't think it's a scan or an attack. It looks more like a broken tcpstack
    or something similar.
    I would try to find out where this traffic originates from, and why it all
    goes to one single box.

    Try to capture more of these packets. They might give you a clue where to
    look for the problem.
    maybe one of the sysadmins on the other network can help you recording
    traffic on his side.
    You also didnt mention if there is any outbound traffic from this box to
    those networks.

    best regards
    Andreas
