[SonicWALL]- Ping of Death

[Cham Bain Smith]

I have recently - 17th March - set up a subnet within our network.  The sonicwall is our firewall out to the internet, all other IP's are internal.  We run a 10.x.0.0/16 network. The source machine 10.0.1.3 is a windows 2000 server running IIS.  The destination IP's are on a separate subnet and are Windows XP machines. Since setting up the subnet my 2K server seems to be sending the occasional Ping of death to the client machines - does anyone have any idea why?  I know Ping of death is a fragmented packet that totals more than the 65534 size limit, but is there any legitimate type of traffic that could cause this symptom? Looking forward to your ideas - 03/18/2003 01:00:50.064 - Ping of death blocked - Source:10.0.1.3, LAN - Destination:10.3.0.101, LAN - 03/18/2003 04:38:51.640 - Ping of death blocked - Source:10.0.1.3, LAN - Destination:10.3.0.103, LAN - - 03/17/2003 17:18:51.848 - Ping of death blocked - Source:10.0.1.3, LAN - Destination:10.3.0.102, LAN - - Cheers Stumped - Cham Bain Smith Network Systems Administrator Eden Brown Recruitment, Training and HR Consultancy 17-29 Sun Street, London EC2M 2PT T 020 7309 1300 F 020 7309 1313                         [EMAIL PROTECTED]       http://www.edenbrown.com    Attention: Any opinions expressed in this email are those of the individual and not necessarily the Company.
