I am a 'newbie' to Security and have been a voyeur to this list-server
for a while - plus the 'education' - so please be gentle...
Recently the following message has been picked up at our PIX firewall:
106012:Deny IP from 0.0.0.0 to 161.58.250.155, IP options: "0x14"
My question is what is an 'IP Option 0x14' ?
Just from the outside IP address I assume this to be some kind of
attempt to map or penetrate the network perimeter...
Any other opinions?
Thank you in advance.
