kamikaze packet

kamikaze packet

The `official' jargon for what is more commonly called a {Christmas tree packet}. {RFC}-1025, TCP and IP Bake Off says:

10 points for correctly being able to process a "Kamikaze" packet (AKA nastygram, christmas tree packet, lamp test segment, et al.). That is, correctly handle a segment with the maximum combination of features at once (e.g., a SYN URG PUSH FIN segment with options and data).

See also {Chernobyl packet}.
