Godzillagram /god-zil'*-gram/ n.
[from Japan's
national hero] 1. A network packet that in theory is a broadcast to
every machine in the universe. The typical case is an IP datagram
whose destination IP address is [255.255.255.255]. Fortunately,
few gateways are foolish enough to attempt to implement this case!
2. A network packet of maximum size. An IP Godzillagram has 65,536
octets. Compare super source quench, Christmas tree packet, martian.
