Abstract :
To resolve the question: penetrate firewall and accurately identify the remote host operating system, research deeply on the ARP protocol and the TCP/IP protocol stack, provide a mothed about host detection through firewall, describes the TCP port scanning process, design a fingerprint storehouse, TCP bag first part and operating system detecting process, develop the network security assessment system based on this way. Test results show that this system can penetrate firewall and accurately identify the target host operating system.
