Won't it at least have to bind to the first port of the "knocking" sequence?

The idea is not that you bind to the port... but that you log attempts to open the port.

On a normal tcp/ip stack... the stack sends a request denied on attempts to open closed ports. I would imagine that if the module tied into the tcp/ip stack, it could monitor for attempts to open a specific set of ports...
