Hello all been slowing learning my security prodedures and such and ran into something at work. ciscoTelnetTrap [1] tslineSesType.0.1 (Integer): telnet[2] tcpConnState: port port 23 (Integer): finwait2
I've so far translated it as IP address1 is setting up a telnet session to IP address 2. What I'm trying to decipher is the meaning of the finwait2. I looked on cisco's webpage and learned that finwait is the time that a firewall will manage a tcp connection after it detects a fin exchange. I'd like to know if anyone can either explain or point me towards some info explaining the fin exchange what it is and what does.
