Request AddressMask detects broadcast address mask
request messages from a host pretending to be
part of the network. The default action is to
pass but log this traffic because it could be
legitimate network traffic on some networks.

Action: Pass
Broadscan.Smurf.
Echo.Request Broadscan is a hacking tool used to generate
and broadcast ICMP requests in a smurf
attack. In a smurf attack, an attacker
broadcasts ICMP requests on Network A using
a spoofed source IP address belonging to
Network B. All hosts on Network A send
multiple replies to Network B, which becomes
flooded.

Administratively.
Prohibited.Reply This signature detects network packets that
have been blocked by some kind of filter. The
host that blocked the packet sends an ICMP
(code 13) Destination Unreachable message
notifying the source or apparent source of the
filtered packet. Since this signature may be
triggered by legitimate traffic, the default action
is to pass but log the traffic, so it can be
monitored.
Signature enabled
Logging enabled
Action: Pass
