Bad TCP handshake picture.[edit]
The picture depicts the following:
Client --- SYN --> Server
Client <-- SYN/ACK --- Server
Client --- RST --> Server
Firstly, RST is NOT part of the handshake. The handshake STARTS the connection. RST ends the connection.
Secondly, RST is sent by either the server or the client.
Thirdly, and most importantly, the TCP handshake ends with
Client --- ACK --> Server
Without this you will not be connected. If this step did not exist, you could create millions of full TCP connections from spoofed IPs (provided they were dead IPs).
This article needs to be REWRITTEN[edit]
It is apparent that this article is a stagnant, festering amalgam of snippets of edits, many of which have not been truly beneficial to the whole. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, this article has garnered my attention from this status. I will post a rewrite plan to this discussion page within a few days. I hope it will guide someone (Myself, if it comes down to it) when this article is recomposed.
