A couple curiosities:
I've seen a few home/sb routers whose firewall will drop a TTL of not only 0, but 1 as well. Any thoughts on why this is?
Does it make sense to drop even a TTL 0 at the home router level? The packet has already gone through the internets and is now on the cusp of your private network. Why discard it now? Security repercussions?
Thanks.
