    CASL in cyberCop scanner have few built-in but allows you to built
    graphically other ones, and it's running under Linux if you like (older
    version, 2.5, if I remember well).
    Cheers.

    I don't know of an "all in one" tool, but I currently use the following
    tools to stress test TCP/IP stacks and network devices:
    
    * the ISIC suite of tools 
    * hping
    * sing
    * apsend (has a few built in DoS attacks)
    * nemesis
    * nmap 
    
    I use ISIC and apsend for stress testing, and the remaining tools to
    construct individual packets and test stack behavior. I'm sure I'm missing a
    few tools, but these are a good start.

    I am looking to hammer an open source firewall/IDS to really put it
    through its paces. What I need is an all in one TCP/IP/UDP denial of
    service tool.  My client wants to see the results of these real world
    tools against this box to prove how effective a well managed open source
    solution can be.  I have heard  ? datapool ? is good but have been
    unable to find it so far.  Any suggestions on such a tool are welcome.
    
    Thanks,
