TITLE:=Port-knocking
- DESCRIPTION:=\
- It listens to all traffic on an ethernet (or PPP) interface, \\\
- looking for special "knock" sequences of port-hits. A client \\\
- makes these port-hits by sending a TCP (or UDP) packet to a \\\
- port on the server. This port need not be open -- since \\\
- knockd listens at the link-layer level, it sees all traffic \\\
- even if it's destined for a closed port. When the server \\\
- detects a specific sequence of port-hits, it runs a command \\\
- defined in its configuration file. This can be used to open \\\
- up holes in a firewall for quick access.
