Security through damn hard to find the target. 😉 As I mentioned, a single LAN has 18.4 billion, billion addresses. With something like nmap, how long would it take to scan through all those addresses? Then again, how do you know that prefix is in use? I get 256 of them from my ISP, but I'm only using a few. Add to that, most of the addresses are temporary, gone within a week. Even if you manage to find one, it won't last long, assuming the firewall is even configured to allow traffic in.
