Right, I'll handle them

Well, I've never played with SCTP before

Yes I know, but it's unlikely to receive this packets from WAN, right?
My flag is intended to be used mostly on WAN interfaces,
machines in LAN should be easily discoverable IMHO

I've tried many TCP flags combination with hping3, NUL, SYN/ACK, ACK,
SYN/FIN, etc.
They doesn't get any response when the flag is set

Never looked at this packets, are a subset of NDP?

It's deprecated and actually it doesn't get any response already
