+Firewalk  is  a  network  auditing  tool  that attempts to
+determine what transport protocols a  given  gateway  will
+pass.   Firewalk  works  by sending out TCP or UDP packets
+with a TTL one greater then the targeted gateway.  If  the
+gateway allows the traffic, it will forward the packets to
+the  next  hop  where  they  will  expire  and  elicit  an
+ICMP_TIME_EXCEEDED  message.  If the gateway host does not
+allow the traffic, it will likely drop the packets on  the
+floor and we will see no response.
