Why are fragmented packets dropped by the FWSM?

0

A. By default, fragmented packets cannot traverse the FWSM. You can use the fragment command to configure this feature. This behavior differs from that of the PIX Firewall. Common protocols that use fragmented packets are Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Network File System (NFS).
