Asdescribedby pentics.net,

“Therearetwopartieswhoarehurt bythisattack...  theintermediary(broadcast)

deviceslet'scallthem"amplifiers",andthespoofedaddresstarget,orthe"victim".

Thevictimisthetargetofalargeamountoftrafficthattheamplifiersgenerate.”70

Sincewehave50compromisedDSLsystemsatourdisposal,anattackofa

reasonablestrengthcanbelaunched.Theroleofthesecompromisedsystemswillbe

discussedshortly.

Basically,anynetworkwithroutersacceptingIPdirectedbroadcastandhosts

acceptingICMPpacketscanbeusedasamplifiers.
