Content copied from a book

[edit]

This article has been copied from the "Network dictionnary" (ISBN 1602670005, 9781602670006). You can see how it actually looks in the book here.-- SOMNIVM 195.34.122.3 (talk) 08:43, 21 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

It seems another user updated the article, but I want to note the fact that the book was published in March 2007, and this article existed well before that date. The December 2006 version of this article, which pre-dates the book, already included some of the text which appeared in the book. It may be a case of the author of the book using Wikipedia material without attribution. Mindmatrix 14:12, 21 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Packet Mangling isn't something negative

[edit]

Packet mangling can mean a variety of things, not just intentionally crafting a packet that circumvents a firewall etc. Changing a packets contents has a legitimate use for NAT/PAT.
