Its value is derived from +its ability to customize, inject, monitor, and manipulate IP traffic. By +allowing you to define (spoof) nearly all TCP, UDP, ICMP, IP, ARP, RARP, and +Ethernet header options, Packit can be useful in testing firewalls, intrusion +detection/prevention systems, port scanning, simulating network traffic, and +general TCP/IP auditing. Packit is also an excellent tool for learning TCP/IP. + +Packit 1.0 requires libnet 1.1.2 or greater, avalaible in SlackBuilds.org +repository, as well as libpcap which is avalaible with Slackware own n/tcpdump. |
