* Package name : firewalk Version : 5.0 Upstream Author : Mike D. Schiffman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.packetfactory.net/firewalk/ * License : BSD Description : attempts to determine what rules in a remote firewall. Firewalk is an active reconnaissance network security tool that attempts to determine what layer 4 protocols a given IP forwarding device will pass. Firewalk works by sending out TCP or UDP packets with a TTL one greater than the targeted gateway. If the gateway allows the traffic, it will forward the packets to the next hop where they will expire and elicit an ICMP_TIME_EXCEEDED message. If the gateway hostdoes not allow the traffic, it will likely drop the packets on the floor and we will see no response. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
