Subject: Re: ICMP Attacks??????? I don't think that's a good idea. The vast majority of routers that I sell to customers are not used in Internet applications, and to add another configuration step to enable the router to do what routers traditionally do by default would be very confusing to the end user.
Wait just one minute there. You're saying that Corporate America *relies* on being able to to IP source address spoofing through the routers it builds its commercial private networks with? Please don't say it's so. Maybe the Internet is *more* secure than the average corporate network! ;-) -- Greg A.
