How to perform Ping of Death attack.

Ping of Death

On the Internet, ping of death is a denial of service (DoS) attack caused by an attacker deliberately sending an IP packet larger than the 65,536 bytes allowed by the IP. One of the features of TCP/IP is fragmentation; it allows a single IP packet to be broken down into smaller segments. In 1996, attackers began to take advantage of that feature when they found that a packet broken down into fragments could add up to more than the allowed 65,536 bytes. Many operating systems didn't know what to do when they received an oversized packet, so they froze, crashed, or rebooted.

How to perform ? 

1.Open the command prompt as administrator
2.Type the following command "ping -t -l target.ip 65500"
3.Now the ddos attack started.

Now if the request timeouts , then it mean the target is down and ddosed ...

Thank you .
