I'm willing to guess that many sites are seeing a lot more fragmented
traffic then they realize. A quick test would be:
tcpdump -nn -v 'ip[6]&32!=0'
under Linux/UNIX or
windump -nn -v "ip[6]&32!=0"
under Windows. If you see normal fragmentation to an internal server
(say a VPN gateway), then this device could be affected.

This should be in big red letters. Any accessible host is potentially
vulnerable to this attack, regardless of whether any listening ports are
open. Also note that most hosts _will not_ log that this attack took
place. You can get hit and the only clue is interrupted connectivity.
