Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 98

What will the following command accomplish?
C:\ nmap -v -sS -Po <ip> -data_length 6600 0-packet_trace

Answer options

• A. Test ability of a router to handle over-sized packets
• B. Test the ability of a router to handle under-sized packets
• C. Test the ability of a WLAN to handle fragmented packets
• D. Test the ability of a router to handle fragmented packets

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The command is designed to send oversized packets, specifically with a data length of 6600 bytes, to test how well the router can manage them. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they refer to undersized packets or fragmented packets, which are not relevant to the parameters specified in the command.
