Hi Greg,

I don't know of an all in one tool as it were, but I would suggest you use both
nemesis and hping to test the afore-mentioned hardware. You could always as well
run these tools off of one the live linux distros like MOSER, or Knoppix STD. 

Cheers,

Don

Pen-Test Group,



    I have a question to present that is in need of a good answer.  The
question I have is "Is there any good programs for VAP testing routers,
switches, and firewalls?"  I know there is the Router Assessment Tool (RAT)
for Cisco router and there is FTEST for firewalls, but are there any other
programs that can be loaded on to a Laptop Toolkit that can do the testing?
Looking for a all in one program if there is such a thing.  If anyone has
any good ideas please let me know.  Thanks ahead.
