| 1 | +There are tons of great tools out there to build and test systems and networks that support user-crafted link-layer frames and network packets. Some of these tools include Scapy, Yersinia, and even WireShark. But why use these ez tools when you can painstakingly make your own. After taking UCSD's CSE 123, I found that I, strangely enough, find it enjoyable to write frames and packets in C and watch other mechanisms deliver the message out to the network. Coupled with my interest to poke at things, I thought it might be cool to write a lightweight tool that would allow someone to write custom packets and send them raw over a socket (or something similar). I would make it a point to write the tool in a hip language, offer a web front-end, and make it possible for users to script their own modules. |
