Interesting traffic...

[Mark Mason <mark.mason () grandecom com>]

Finally some interesting traffic. I know the IP is spoofed, but is there any
way snort might have gotten the direction of the traffic confused ? As it is
it appears to come from inside my network (it could happen) the obscured
address is a real IP, but doesn't appear to be up now. It is interesting
that the MSS is very high on the first packet. Any idea what this could be
caused by ?
