Is there any tool publicly available to generate IPv6 traffic on Windows
Vista?

I am looking for a tool that can be used to generate IPv6 packets with
various Ipv6 extension option headers.

Pls let me know if someone is aware of such a utility.

Thanks,

-Praveen

Hi Praveen,

what about writing a little tool in DotNET which can
send and receive IPv6 Packets and Data? If you dont
have VStudio 2005 you can download one of the express
editions which your favourite programming language. I would
prefer C++.NET or C#, better to say recommend C++.NET
since you will have access to the Windows SDK without having
to do pinvioke/interop API from Windows (most of it).

This could be done between 10-20 Minutes and you will have
a working tool that can generate IPv6 Traffic with your needs.
Really easy to develop with the powerfull .NET SDK. If you
prefer native development for any particular reason you should
know that the development would really need more time

But i think this will also do it for you:
http://gull.sourceforge.net/
Notice: It runs on Linux, but this should not be
a problem, since you can run linux in a "box" on a
windows system, e.g. Virtual PC, Innotek Virtual
Box, BOCHS, etc,...

If you need code, check this out:
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/internet/ipv6.asp

Its is really easy to generate traffic for IPv6 even
with the ping6 toll you can generate "traffic",...

I hope this helps,...

Kerem

It is also trivial using usual C language and socket API, and WDK to build
the code.

yes it is, but i is more comfortable for me (and not only me)
to develop such a application in C++.NET, C# or VB.NET or
whatever DotNET enabled language, since you have a lot of
powerfull classes that encapsulate most of the windows apis and
especially the socket api for which the DotNET has a huge namespace
and a lot of classes that speed-up the development for a application
like that,....

Sure, befor .NET we did a lot of in C / C++, Java, Perl, Python
or whetver could solve this problem,...its up to your preference,...

Regards

Kerem

Exactly, this is the matter of taste, the app we are speaking about is tiny,
so, pick your favourite tool and go.
