What is tcpreplay?
-------------------
Tcpreplay is a tool to replay saved tcpdump files at arbitrary speeds.
This program was written in the hopes that a more precise testing
methodology might be applied to the area of network intrusion
detection, which is still a black art at best.
Many NIDSs fare poorly when looking for attacks on heavily-loaded
networks. Tcpreplay allows you to recreate real network traffic from a
real network for use in testing.
What systems does tcpreplay support?
-------------------------------------
Tcpreplay is fairly portable, relying on libpcap and libnet for
packet capture and raw IP packet construction.
Tcpreplay has been successfully tested on
- OpenBSD 2.x
- FreeBSD 3.x
- BSD/OS 3.x
- Redhat Linux 5.x
- Solaris 2.x
Who can use tcpreplay?
-----------------------
Tcpreplay is licensed under a BSD-style license, as in the included
LICENSE file. Please read the license to make sure it's okay to use it
