nemesis tcp -S 10.10.10.10 -P payload

or using the -D flag w/ nmap ...

Subject: [Snort-users] Debugging Snort rules locally, is there a way around
loopback?


Is there a way to test snort rules on the same (Windows) machine that
snort
is located on? I know that because of loopback, no packet that is sent to
a
local address is actually sent over the interface snort monitors. Does
anyone know a way to test locally?
