Re: IDS Testing tool

Is anyone aware of any open source equivalent of Blade's IDS Informer
tool to test IDSes? I am aware that TCPReplay can be used to test IDSes
but then we will need to make actual attacks at least once to capture
the traffic. Any help would be appreciated.
What's wrong with just blasting it with a vuln scanner? Nessus will
generate a lot of noise in most NIDSs and can even be tweaked for more
"noisyness"

Best,
