| hi, everyone
| I have this idea in mind for qutie sometime but i am not sure
| whether it is
| feasible technically.
|
| I am thinking of building a virtual network intrusion generater.
| The reason
| i call it virtual is that it does not attack any real target.
| What it did is
| attack a non-existant IP/Host and generate all the necesary packets.
| Meanwhile the local IDS will block all these packets and capture them for
| studying and analyizing.
[shrip] I am not sure about what you are trying to achieve by doing this,
but you can generate packets and inject them into the network by using some
of the available libraries. You can obviously generate packets with fake IP
addresses, it does not matter whether they exist or not. There is the risk
that they may be dropped somewhere along the way.
Now, the question is, that if you are generating the packets, then why do
you want your IDS to capture them for analysis??
