I have a few Snort boxes in place for my test environment & now I need to make my environment real. I need to do some serious traffic generating (all kinds). Was wondering if anyone could suggest some good solutions (commercial products/appliances ok). Preferably need something that can simulate thousands of hosts on a network/segment, generate the assoicated traffic as well as bring up MAC/IP's. If I could simulate a network/LAN with at least 5-10,000 nodes on it, generate various kinds of traffic, including netBios & the like that would be cool. Would really be cool if I could have these virtual nodes appear as a variety of OS types, i.e. Windows.
Does anything like this even exist?
VMware is great but it has it's limitations, (only about 1/2 dozen Virtual machines per CPU).
Would be nice if there was magic box!
Will be cool if the box is able to generate DOS / Security attacks & the like. Any suggestions? Thanks...
