You can use a tool like despoof, available from http://razor.bindview.com/
in the Tools section under Unix files. Checking the TTL of what dalnet
packets are and comparing it to the suspected spoofed packets means you
can possibly configure your equipment to not respond but drop the packets.
Certainly packets with such an obvious signature should be easy to weed
out from any legitimate traffic from dalnet. Or any other site.
