SendIP - an arbitrary IP packet generating tool

SendIP is a tool which allows creating (and, of course, sending) arbitrary IP (v4 and v6) packets.

How To Install

Download Tarbell package from here.

Steps to install:

1. Untar it in some folder. (tar -xzvf sendip-2.5-mec-0.tar.gz)
2. sudo make
3. make install
4. Now if you type sendip on Linux CLI, it should show all the available Modules. (Ex: ipv4 ipv6 icmp tcp udp bgp rip ripng ntp ah dest esp frag gre hop route)

How To Use

• -p module //load the specified module (see below)
• -v  be verbose
• -h  print this message
• -d  data //add this data as a string to the end of the packet. rN to generate N random(ish) data  bytes; //zN to generate N nul (zero) data bytes; 0x or 0X followed by hex  digits; 0 followed by octal digits; decimal number for decimal digits

Example:

• ICMP4: sendip -v -p ipv4 -is 2.2.2.2 -p icmp -d r10 2.2.2.3 
• ICMP6: sendip -v -p ipv6 -6s 9901::180 -p icmp -d "hello" 9901::100
• TCP4 : sendip -v -p ipv4 -is 2.2.2.2 -p tcp -ts 1000 -td 1005 -tfs 1 -tn 0 2.2.2.3
• TCP6 : sendip -v -p ipv6 -6s 9901::180 -p tcp -ts 1000 -td 1005 -tfs 1 -tn 0 9901::100
• UDP4 : sendip -v -p ipv4 -is 2.2.2.2 -p udp -us 34001 -ud 34002 2.2.2.3
• UDP6 : sendip -v -p ipv6 -6s 9901::180 -p udp -us 34001 -ud 34002 9901::100

Generate Various IPv6 Extension Header with ICMPv6 as next header.

• Route(43):    sendip -v -p ipv6 -6s 9901::180 -6n 43 -p route -p icmp -d "hello" 9901::100

• Frag(44): sendip -v -p ipv6 -6s 9901::180 -6n 44 -p frag -p icmp -d "hello" 9901::100

• AH(51): sendip -v -p ipv6 -6s 9901::180 -6n 51 -p ah -p icmp -d "hello" 9901::100

• HopByHop(0): sendip -v -p ipv6 -6s 9901::180 -6n 0 -p hop -p icmp -d "hello" 9901::100

• Dest Opt(60): sendip -v -p ipv6 -6s 9901::180 -6n 60 -p dest -p icmp -d "hello" 901::100

• ESC(50): sendip -v -p ipv6 -6s 9901::180 -6n 32 -p esc -p icmp -d "hello" 9901::100
