Hello,
I'm interested in working on this project "RFC 5927 countermeasures
against IPv6 ICMP attacks on TCP"(175hours) as Outlined on the NetBSD
lists of projects.

I'm well conversant with Networking Protocols, how they work and the
implementation with the C programming language and most important of
all, I can navigate the NetBSD codebase with ease.
I've also carefully gone through the RFC 5927 with an insight on the
General Counter-Measures against ICMP Attacks especially on ipv6
packets.

I look forward to your response and any other steps required.

Best regards,
Dennis Onyeka.
