:fire: The most powerful UDP-based load generator, written in Rust

anevicon

Anevicon is a high-performance traffic generator, designed to be as convenient and reliable as it is possible. It sends numerous UDP-packets to a victim, thereby simulating an activity that can be produced by your end users or a group of hackers.

Installation

$ cargo install anevicon

Usage

anevicon 0.1.0
Temirkhan Myrzamadi <[email protected]>
An UDP-based server stress-testing tool, written in Rust.

USAGE:
    anevicon [FLAGS] [OPTIONS] --receiver <ADDRESS>

FLAGS:
        --debug      Enable the debugging mode
    -h, --help       Prints help information
    -V, --version    Prints version information

OPTIONS:
        --display-periodicity <PACKETS>
            A count of packets per displaying attack summaries. It is not
            recommended to set this option to a small value (say, 6) for the
            performance reasons. [default: 300]
    -d, --duration <TIME-SPAN>
            A program working time. The default value is too big, that is, an
            attack will be performed until you explicitly stop the process.
            [default: 64years 64hours 64secs]
    -l, --length <BYTES>
            A size of each UDP-packet, specified in bytes. Note that your system
            or a victim server might not be able to handle the default value.
            [default: 65000]
    -p, --packets <COUNT>
            A count of packets for sending. The default value equals to the
            largest number available for the inner data type. [default:
            18446744073709551615]
    -r, --receiver <ADDRESS>
            A receiver of generated traffic, specified as an IP-address and a
            port number, separated by the colon character.
        --send-periodicity <TIME-SPAN>
            A periodicity of sending packets. The default value equals to zero
            seconds, that is, all packets will be sent momentarily. [default:
            0secs]
        --send-timeout <TIME-SPAN>
            If sending calls will continue longer than this timeout, the program
            will exit with an error. By default, all the sending calls will
            continue indefinitely.
    -s, --sender <ADDRESS>
            A sender of generated traffic, specified as an IP-address and a port
            number, separated by the colon character. [default: 0.0.0.0:0]
    -w, --wait <TIME-SPAN>
            A waiting time before an attack execution. It is mainly used to
            prevent a launch of an erroneous (unwanted) attack. [default: 5secs]

Cautions

• The goal of Anevicon is to produce the maximum possible (for the attacking system) load on the specified victim address. Thereby, this DOES NOT MEAN that Anevicon will break ABSOLUTELY ANY SERVER while running on your computer.

• Anevicon was developed as a means of testing the stress resistance of servers, and not for hacking, that is, the author of the project IS NOT RESPONSIBLE for any damage caused by your use of my program. See the license notice.

• Despite the fact that Anevicon is heavily tested both automatically and manually, does not mean that the author is responsible for any bug in his work. The program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, see the license disclaimer.
