Explanation

Firewalk is a network reconnaissance tool used to determine which ports a firewall/gateway allows through by sending crafted packets with incrementing TTL values. Its syntax is: 'firewalk [options] <gateway/hop IP> <target IP>'. The first positional IP argument (10.10.150.1) is the gateway or intermediate hop being probed, and the second positional IP argument (172.16.28.95) is the actual target host. The '-F 80' flag specifies port 80 and '-p UDP' specifies the protocol. Therefore, the target host is 172.16.28.95.
