Wait, is this a trick question? What if the answer is 'All of the above'? *scratches head* Ah, who am I kidding, I'm just going to go with my gut on this one.

Smurf attack, of course! I bet the correct answer is so obvious, even a network admin's grandma could figure it out. *chuckles*

FMS attack? What even is that? Sounds like something out of a James Bond movie. I'm going with Sniffer attack, just because it sounds cooler.
