  4. What is tcpreplay?
  5. -------------------
  6. Tcpreplay is a tool to replay saved tcpdump files at arbitrary speeds.
  7. This program was written in the hopes that a more precise testing
  8. methodology might be applied to the area of network intrusion
  9. detection, which is still a black art at best.
  10. Many NIDSs fare poorly when looking for attacks on heavily-loaded
  11. networks. Tcpreplay allows you to recreate real network traffic from a
  12. real network for use in testing.
  13. What systems does tcpreplay support?
  14. -------------------------------------
  15. Tcpreplay is fairly portable, relying on libpcap and libnet for
  16. packet capture and raw IP packet construction.
  17. Tcpreplay has been successfully tested on
  18. - OpenBSD 2.x
  19. - FreeBSD 3.x
  20. - BSD/OS 3.x
  21. - Redhat Linux 5.x
  22. - Solaris 2.x
  23. Who can use tcpreplay?
  24. -----------------------
  25. Tcpreplay is licensed under a BSD-style license, as in the included
  26. LICENSE file. Please read the license to make sure it's okay to use it
  27. in your circumstances.
