sorry in advance if does not go here

I was going through my firewall log and have noticed that constatly today my udp port are getting hit with attempted connections.
all of them are from the 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 range.
it says the host name for these are chadmin except for the one that said it was Microsoft-DS.
and everytime I attempt to trace it says it is set aside for private internet's
