Can you post a sample of the "answers" you have received; which prompted you the ask this question to begin with.
I've been asking the question in phone interviews for months. I couldn't quote them properly but the answers were... discouraging. No one beyond ping and traceroute. I asked HR last week to start asking the question as a pre-screen and forward me the answer. The first one responded "This would block all IP traffic." I figured it was time for a sanity check to make sure the question was reasonable. Regards, Bill -- William D.
