It would be interesting to know what IP address is being asked for. 

For example, this is the router asking, and of course the router's 
interface is statically configured, and the address it is looking for is 
either its:

The DNS server
The NTP server
The SYSLOG server
The COPS policy server (yeah, like anyone has implemented COPS and if 
they did, this would be an anycast)


The SYSLOG server has my bet, as a router, configured for remote 
syslogging will always have something to send to its syslog...
