Editing Smurf attack (section)

=={{anchor|Fraggle Attack}}Fraggle attack==
A Fraggle attack (named for the creatures in the puppet TV series ''[[Fraggle Rock]]'') is a variation of a Smurf attack where an attacker sends a large amount of [[User Datagram Protocol|UDP]] traffic to ports 7 ([[Echo Protocol|Echo]]) and 19 ([[Character Generator Protocol|CHARGEN]]). It works similarly to the Smurf attack in that many computers on the network will respond to this traffic by sending traffic back to the spoofed source IP of the victim, flooding it with traffic.<ref>{{cite web
