Hi Folks,


Looking for a bit of insight from you guys in the know.


I've deployed a 4.3 box as a pen test / scanning tool for our network. One of

the toys I've put on is HPING from the packages collection.


Ok so here's the problem if I do a 'hping -c 10000 -i u100 -1 xx.xx.xx.xx' I

generate a rather unimpressive 50pps. Issuing the same command on a gentoo box

(sorry) I get 9000+ pps.


In both cases HPING is v2.00.xx something. I've tried HPING3 but the result is

the same.


So HPING on OBSD is broke, are there any alternatives? I need to generate a

large number of packets to test our DDoS system, Arbor PeakFlow + TMS, OpenBSD

4.3 at its core ;-)


Any suggestions much appreciated, also if I can fix HPING or any knows of a

patch that would be good too.


Thanks


Simon
