Re: Tracking stealth portscan/pepsi attacks

As a side note, does anybody use anything to prevent address spoofing in their network? That would at prevent a lot of attacks completly and make tracing the rest much easier.
RFC 2267 describes most of the measures that should be taken at the router level. I'm not sure how many ISPs implemented everything recommended in that document.

This document doesn't mention the very important statement "no ip directed-broadcast" for dealing with smurf attacks. Please use this command on each interface whenever possible. Check your network at http://www.powertech.no/smurf/. Kind Regards, Patrick Schreurs. -- Ing. W.P.
