Good day John,

Take a look at:

http://www.professionalsecuritytester.com/modules.php?name=Web_Links&l_op=vi
ewlink&cid=12    

You have a list of IDS testing tools that could help you, some commercial
and some freeware.

Take care

Clement

Any number of toolsets should work.  You could look at things like
initiating scans from NMAP, satan and vulnerability scanners.  Throughput
could be tested with a smartbits, ixia and other traffic generators.

Hi all,

I'm looking for tools that can test the effectiveness
of an NIDS like:

- How much load can it take before dropping packets ?
- What attacks can it detect or not detect

etc...

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
