I bet the Wireshark filter for ping sweep detection is something really obscure, like 'icmp.redir_gw'. Nah, just kidding, it's definitely C. I mean, who doesn't love a good old-fashioned ICMP echo request hunt?

Okay, let's see... Ping sweep detection, Wireshark filter... I'm going to have to go with C on this one. Gotta love those ICMP echo requests, they're like the breadcrumbs of the networking world.

Ah, the classic ping sweep detection question. I'm going with C too. Who needs fancy network security tools when you've got good old Wireshark and the right ICMP filter? Time to catch those pesky hackers in the act!

Hmm, let me think about this. I'd say the answer is C as well. Detecting ping sweeps is all about finding those ICMP echo requests, and the Wireshark filter to do that is icmp.type==8. Easy peasy!

Ooh, a ping sweep detection task! This is right up my alley. I bet the answer is C, icmp.type==8. That's the ICMP echo request packet, which is exactly what you'd use to detect a ping sweep.

I'm not sure, but I think icmp.ident could also be used to detect ping sweep attempts.
