| Summary: A libpcap-based Ethernet packet generator | |
Bit-Twist is a libpcap-based Ethernet packet generator complementing tcpdump. It replays traffic captured in .pcap files onto a live network. It comes with a trace file editor to allow you to change the contents of a trace file. A packet generator is useful in simulating networking traffic or testing firewall, IDS, and IPS, and troubleshooting various network problems.
GPL-2.0-only
* Thu Feb 22 2024 Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar@opensuse.org>
- Use %autosetup macro. Allows to eliminate the usage of deprecated
%patchN
* Fri Sep 22 2023 Ming Li <mli@suse.com>
- Update to version 3.8
* bumped from gcc -O2 to -O3 optimization flag:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Optimize-Options.html#index-O3
bittwist (generator)
* added RFC 2544 benchmark data generator and benchmark page
* improved actual inter-packet gap replay by using token bucket algorithm for
short IPG and self-regulated timer for long IPG
* Sun Jul 02 2023 Martin Hauke <mardnh@gmx.de>
- Update to version 3.7
Changes since 2.0:
general
* added support for trace files with nanosecond resolution.
* updated manual pages.
* use in-memory trace files when sending packets in loop.
* fixed integer overflow in stats output.
* added static code analysis in Makefile (make check).
* reformatted source files for C17 standard.
* added initial python testing framework for Linux systems.
bittwist (generator):
* 30% speed up when sending large pcap file.
* fixed linerate throttling.
* updated -p option to send packets at set packets per second
(pps).
* added -t option to set inter-packet gap (this was previously
- p option).
* removed speed (-m) flag; use -p/-r to shape throughput.
* updated linerate (-r) flag to use token bucket algorithm.
bittwiste (editor)
* added -G option to set fixed or random inter-packet gap in
microseconds.
* added support for CIDR notation when modifying IPv4/IPv6
addressA.
* added support for random MAC address.
* added option to edit IPv6 next header.
* added random number support for id, ttl, proto, next header,
hop limit.
* added option to set uniformly distributed random number
(mersenne twister). for tcp/udp source/destination port and
tcp sequence/acknowledgment number.
* added -N flag to duplicate packets from trace file, e.g.
- N 100000 to repeat packets from trace file for 100,000 times
* added ip6tcp and ip6udp templates.
* updated -I flag to allow loading trace file from built-in
templates.
* options to edit IPv4/IPv6 packets to allow testing of
classification/queuing. features of switches/routers, e.g.
+ -T ip -e 3 to indicate congestion to the end hosts
+ -T ip6 -c 16 to classify packet for operation and management
of the network
+ -T ip6 -f 0xfffff to set custom flow label
* added support for IPv6 packets.
* improved cksum().
* expanded test cases.
- Update patch:
* bittwist-makefile.diff
- Update URL
* Fri May 26 2017 jengelh@inai.de
- Trim filler wording from description.
* Sat Jan 02 2016 mardnh@gmx.de
- initial package, version 2.0
