No subject

and I
can't recognize the relevant IP address in the dribble.
Also the first 4 bits should decoded to a 4 according to rfc791, and
here it's
a NULL. So whatever it is, it's probably not a full, aligned, nice IP
packet.
But I may be wrong, it's been a long time since I eyeball-decoded ip
packets ;)
