Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Firewalking uses a traceroute-like IP packet analysis to determine whether or not a particular packet can pass from the attacker's host to a destination host through a packet-filtering device. This technique can be used to map 'open' or 'pass through' ports on a gateway. More over, it can determine whether packets with various control information can pass through a given gateway.
