I have a problem with my ALLNET router.
With a program called CommView I discovered that it sends packets to all of the computers hooked in it.
It sends 1000 such packets every second and it's flooding me badly.
But the packets themself are very strange.
Here is what CommView shows me:
Packet #671740,
Direction: Pass-through,
Time:19:15:49,265,
Size: 190
Ethernet II
Destination MAC: 12:34:56:FF:FF:FF
Source MAC: 00:C0:02:FA:7E:D6
Ethertype: 0x2A2A (10794) - Unknown
Raw Data (what the packet contains):
.4V˙˙˙.Ŕ.ú~Ö***alloc.c(line 109):fail to get new call***.get new tun!***

What kind of a protocol is 0x2A2A??? This can't be ICMP though it only goes to 255...

Anyone have any ideas what this is all about?


Thank you,
Andrew
