Before I go to the trouble of making one myself, does anybody happen to know of a pre-canned program to generate realistic and scalable amounts of broadcast/broad-multicast network background "chatter" seen on typical consumer and business networks? This would be things like lots of ARP traffic to/from various sources/destinations within a subnet, SSDP, MDNS-SD, SMB browser traffic, DHCP requests, etc.?Ideally, said tool would have knobs to control the amount of traffic and whether a given type of traffic is present.This is mostly for torture testing "IoT" type devices by exposing them to lots of diverse, essentially nonsense traffic that they're likely to see in a real environment.-- Brandon Martin
