:http://netscan.org has the first (relatively) complete database of ICMP
:directed broadcast networks ("smurf amplifiers").  All allocated IP
addresses
:ending in .0 or .255 have been pinged and measured, so it's complete short
of
:pinging the whole 'Net.


The people over at Smurf Amplifier Registry
( http://www.powertech.no/smurf/ ) have had such a project going for a
pretty long time:
--
32508 networks have been probed with the SAR
15969 of them are currently broken
7208 have been fixed after being listed here
