So, I was tcpdump'ing on my ge00 to try and see where my bandwidth had gone, and if there was some unresolved bloat. I can tell because I stream my music from my home to my office, and it will skip if my home is screwed up.
I was seeing all sorts of arp requests... basically for everything on the Internet. Weirdly, my ISP seems to proxy-arp for EVERYTHING.... what was wrong? why was I doing this. I've seen this on windows boxes when they have a network route pointing 0.0.0.0/0 to the "LAN".... but I don't have that: root@bud:~# netstat -rn Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt 0.0.0.0 209.87.254.158 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ge00 oops, wait... did I type my gateway wrong??? yes. I've pointed my gateway at myself. DAMN. that shouldn't have worked at all!!! I'm just posting this as a huh. It also seems that there is no control to keep dnsmasq from answering on my ge00. I guess some trojans try to use me for DOS amplication by asking for isc.org continuously? _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
