The IP standard RFC 791 specifies a set of options to provide special routing controls, diagnostic tools, and security. These options appear after the destination address in an IP packet header. When they do appear, they are frequently being put to some nefarious use. Record option is one of these options that an attacker can use for reconnaissance or for some unknown but suspicious purpose When record IP option is received, the security device flags this as an network reconnaissance attack and records the event for the ingress interface. This attribute records the detection of IP record option packets.
