A DOS attack.... I'm trying to test a new product we just purchased. It's a Packeteer which will recognize and deal with unusal traffic flow and bandwidth problems. We experienced several internal DOS attacks from internal hosts caused by bots. I've configured the Packeteer but haven't found a way to test the device. I have it set up on a private vlan with just the nessus server/client, the Packeteer and a test host. But running the normal scan with DOS enabled doesn't generate much traffic. How do I crank it up to really eat up the bandwidth and emulate an attack. No animals will be used in this experiment and it is safe for childrens consumption as required by the FDA. Appreciate any help as I just downloaded this software and am a newbie.
