Makes you wonder how secure their backhaul really is?
If the whole thing is a single flat logical network (one that could allow bad packets to propagate as we witnessed) that would suggest it is also quite vulnerable to malicious actions.
It is all well and good applying a filter, but that seems like a bandaid fix. Why is equipment even able to talk that has no reason to do so? Seems like they've put convenience over good network governance.
- ecp9 8y agoMuch networking equipment is not designed to handle malicious or bizarre traffic. TCP/IP is amazingly brittle, and often fails on me in surprising ways that the standards say should never ever happen.
