For example, the attacker could send packets whose Time to live fields have been crafted to reach the IDS but not the target computers it protects. This technique will result in an IDS with different state than the target.

Famous quotes containing the words inserting and/or traffic:
“There is no such thing as a perfect leader either in the past or present, in China or elsewhere. If there is one, he is only pretending, like a pig inserting scallions into its nose in an effort to look like an elephant.”
—Liu Shao-Ch’I (b. 1898)
“Too much traffic with a quotation book begets a conviction of ignorance in a sensitive reader. Not only is there a mass of quotable stuff he never quotes, but an even vaster realm of which he has never heard.”
—Robertson Davies (b. 1913)
