Ok before anyone even reads this post please note I am qualifying it as a stupid question so flames will not be appreciated. Also if this does not make the list I will understand. I was not really sure where to post it. I was wondering with smurf amplification attacks what would happen if you spoofed your IP as the broadcast address of another smurfable network. Would this cause an ICMP storm / war?? Would the two networks continousally just ping each other??? Anyway it was something I was wondering about. Please feel free to respond in public or private. Thx.
