One Answer:
If you're suspecting that you're getting ping flooded (as in Denial of service), you'll see lots of ICMP traffic (just type icmp in your filter box) The flavor of the week, as far as denial of service attacks isn't ping floods though, its usually SYN flooding or NNTP attacks A way to test this is to open a command prompt (if you're on windows) and type: ping -t 4.4.2.2 Then open wireshark and start a capture, type icmp in your filter box, and you'll immediately see pings. answered 21 Oct '14, 05:17  robotfish1911 edited 21 Oct '14, 05:19 |
