If you have a machine behind a firewall, why do you care that it's IP is secret? Do you also worry about people finding out your IPv4 IP?

- qjighap 11y agoI have worried about it the past. The more a bad actor has to thrash around the better chance an IDS will trigger. As well some older (read cheaper) firewalls have been known to allow through ACK packets through. This attack is not (IMHO) intended against properly secured sites, but rather than small business with consumer grade routers or something equivalent.
