I kinda caught the fragrouter argument in the middle.  Does anyone have
a link of some sort that explains how fragrouter can bypass snort?


I'm about to formalize but the jist of it is that when breaking
packets / data apart on the network, there was a problem in forming it
back into something the IDS could alert.

Just for an example, what was happening on reassembly is that overlaps
were being constructed opposite from what most hosts see so the
traffic being sent through the detection engine was actually basically
looking at the wrong half of the traffic.
