Name: Firewall Test Agent v1.1[ZIP 774 KB] Credit: Nathan House
Abstract: This simple tool can be used to test and log the rules on a firewall. The Firewall Test Agent is able to open up any number of TCP and UDP ports on a windows machine and log any connection attempts.
It's a nice tool and I'm going to use it in a class on firewalls I'll be giving shortly. I've been looking for a Windows tool like this a long time. Might I suggest some areas for further development? - recording ICMP packets - ability to save the recorded packets into a log file - ability influence the response the tool gives (ACK, RST, silence) I'm thinking of a combination of functions that you find in: - BackOfficerFriendly - http://www.nfr.com/resource/backOfficer.php - PortPeeker - http://www.linklogger.com/portpeeker.htm The nice thing with your approach is that you can open more than one port (portpeeker only one) and that you can set any port (BOF has a fixed port range).
