A wildcard mask is a mask of bits that indicates which parts of an IP address are available for examination. In the Cisco IOS, [1] they are used in several places, for example:
SIADDR (Server IP address: 0xc0a80101 or 192.168.1.1) 52 416 GIADDR (Gateway IP address: 0x00000000) 56 448 CHADDR (Client Hardware address: 0x00053C04 0x8D590000 0x00000000 0x00000000) 60 480 64 512 68 544 72 576 192 octets of 0s, or overflow space for additional options; BOOTP legacy. ⋮ ⋮ 260 2080 264 2112 Magic Cookie (0x63825363)
The following example shows IP addresses that might be used with an office network that consists of six hosts plus a router. The six hosts addresses are:
Broadcast address derivation example Network IP address breakdown for 172.16.0.0 / 12 Binary form Dot-decimal notation In bold below is shown the host part (suffix) of the IP address, with the network address prefix being the non-bold bits to its left.
Network address translation between a private network and the Internet. Network address translation (NAT) is a method of mapping an IP address space into another by modifying network address information in the IP header of packets while they are in transit across a traffic routing device. [1]
ping is a computer network administration software utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (IP) network. It is available in a wide range of operating systems – including most embedded network administration software.
Thus, for a large number of UDP packets, the victimized system will be forced into sending many ICMP packets, eventually leading it to be unreachable by other clients. The attacker(s) may also spoof the IP address of the UDP packets, ensuring that the excessive ICMP return packets do not reach them, and anonymizing their network location(s).
The original version of netcat was a Unix program. The last version (1.10) was released in March 1996. [4]There are several implementations on POSIX systems, including rewrites from scratch like GNU netcat [5] or OpenBSD netcat, [6] the latter of which supports IPv6 and TLS.
