Hi, What about fragmented packets that never defragmented and "out-of-order" sequence number packets? The reason I raised this question is there are some attacks not detected because sometimes packets are not passed down to the dectection engine. Thanks, Tung.

I could be wrong on this, but I can't think of a scenario where a packet would pass through frag3 or stream5 and get stopped. Unless the engine told it to stop. (Like the SSL preprocessor instructed stream5 to not reassemble an encrypted stream or something). Or if you had stream5 set up to force a 3 way handshake or something. Something in an inline deployment that stopped a packet midstream. But normally, yes, all packets should get passed down to the Detection Engine. Why? Are experiencing a problem?

If not, in which case a packet is not passed down to the Detection Engine?
