These connections are rogue connections that have been established to the CCI at some time and now CCI is trying to connect back. Quite often this happens if somebody does a port scan through the network.
To rectify this you can either recycle CCI or you can issue the following command to remove the connection from CCI : ccinet disconnect ::ffff:nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn Where nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is the IP address displayed in the CAICCI_W_2014 message. You can also do the following which will stop all connections from trying to be reconnected.
