It's not just a database for North Americans, you > know. Yes, I know it very well. Just as those fact that more than 90% of NANOG's readers can't trace frauded packets in their own networks (due to technical issuesm, usially, a luck of cpu power or so on)... But anyway it's a small chance that someone read this message, then look at his IP accounting or Netflow file, and cry _that's it; I see a lot of packets originated from my ISDN_x.y.z customer with the frauded SRC address destined to this broadcast addresses_. Yes, I know it's very small chance, but why don't try. Really; the broadcast addresses of this SMURF amplified networks are well known. All the ISP who are to be unhappy to serve SMURF intruder are to do is to add filter for this network, with some log-input option, and watch at this log sometimes... If I do not want to allow my customers SMURF another customers, I'll do it (yes, you are right - I dod not installed this filters yet through this work is listed in my TODO records). Through I have checked my network a few times for this echo-request packets - no one was found. I hope this smurfers live out of our network. > > P.S. in case you don't understand the English above, it was mostly sarcasm > directed at those other guys, not at you.
