Source port >1024 (normaly, please check on that, might be different from OS to OS.

No UDP is as you correctly say connectionless, so no synchronisation is required, you 

could potential build a kind of sync feature but inside your UDP payload at another layer.

Looking at some suspicious behaviour in our logs...

 

If someone sends a packet with the SYN bit set to a host, typically what is the client's source port? Or is that crafted too?

 

And additionally, when a client does sent a packet of this type, am I right in assuming its generally TCP only? Can you have a UDP SYN packet? I assume because its connectionless, no???
