SYN cookies are the key element of a technique used to guard against SYN flood attacks. Daniel J. Bernstein , the technique s primary inventor, defines SYN cookies as particular choices of initial Transmission Control Protocol TCP sequence numbers by TCP servers. In particular, the use of SYN cookies allows a server to avoid dropping connections when the SYN queue fills up. Instead, the server behaves as if the SYN queue had been enlarged. The server sends back the appropriate SYN ACK response to the client but discards the SYN queue entry. If the server then receives a subsequent ACK response from the client, the server is able to reconstruct the SYN queue entry using information encoded in the TCP ... SYN packet to the server.
