kamikaze packet
(foldoc) | Christmas tree packet
kamikaze packet
(Or kamikaze packet) A packet with every single
option set for whatever protocol is in use. The term
doubtless derives from a fanciful image of each little option
bit being represented by a different-coloured light bulb, all
turned on.
RFC 1025, "TCP and IP Bake Off" says:
10 points for correctly being able to process a "Kamikaze"
packet (AKA nastygram, Christmas tree packet, lamp test
segment, et al.). That is, correctly handle a segment with
the maximum combination of features at once (e.g. a SYN URG
PUSH FIN segment with options and data).
Compare: Chernobyl packet.
