Glenn,

Not sure what you mean by "experimental" however, there are
some conditions of flags that should never occur on the
network. These can be trapped with rules similar to the following.

iptables -A BLOCKED -m state --state INVALID -j LOG-AND-DROP
iptables -A BLOCKED -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL ALL -j LOG-AND-DROP
iptables -A BLOCKED -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL NONE -j LOG-AND-DROP
