Speaking of denial-of-service attacks, how would one go about tracing
packets with a false IP header?
The delimma here is that we have got our router configured properly so
that it doesn't let any packets leave our network with false headers. But
there's a whole slew of people out there with routers who either don't
care or don't know how to filter bad outgoing packets. This presents a
big problem for us if someone decides to execute a denial of service on
us, or even do a simple IP spoof in a hacking attempt so we can't trace
them.
Any Suggestions?
