Free network pipemeter 0.40 software for linux

Network Pipemeter is a tool for measuring available bandwidth between hosts. nepim is also useful to generate network traffic for testing purposes.
nepim operates in client/server mode, is able to handle multiple parallel traffic streams, reports periodic partial statistics along the testing, and supports IPv6.
nepim has been tested under Linux, Solaris and FreeBSD, though it should work under other platforms as well. If you manage to build nepim for different systems, please send the patch.
- nepim is useful to assess the throughput at the transport layer (TCP or UDP) as seen by applications.
- nepim runs single-threaded and should impose very light burden on your CPU. Unless, of course, your testing hosts have relatively high network bandwidth compared to low CPU power.
- One single server can service multiple clients simultaneously.
- As of nepim 0.11, one single client can interact simultaneously with multiple servers. For instance, suppose you want to test, from a single client, two remote servers, one located at 10.0.0.1,2000 and another at 192.168.0.1,3000:
- nepim -c 10.0.0.1,2000/192.168.0.1,3000
- The server listens to both TCP and UDP sockets. The client by default uses TCP sockets. Use the "-u" client option to switch the client operation to UDP.
- By default, only the server sends traffic towards the client. Use the "-s" client option to reverse the behavior, then only the client will send traffic. Use the "-d" client option to make both client and server to send traffic.
- Use the "-r" client option to establish an upper bit rate limit. Without a rate limiting option, nepim sends as fast as possible. See also "-R" below. Please notice the rate is specified in bps (bits per seconds); for instance, the following example states a rate limit of 100,000 bps (100 Kbps):
- nepim -c 10.0.0.1 -r 100000
- Use the "-R" client option to establish an upper "packet" rate limit (outbound rate limit for transport layer segments). Without a rate limiting option, nepim sends as fast as possible. If both "-r" and "-R" are given, nepim limits the sending rate at the lower of those bounds.
- Use the "-n" client option to run multiple parallel traffic streams.
- Use the "-b" server option to make the server to listen on specific local addresses.
- Use the "-6" option to disable IPv6 support.
Enhancements:
- Support for randomizing the UDP destination address/port has been added in order to put stress on routers with on-demand (dynamic) forwarding table caches.

Network FIFO project is a network object that provides data transfering tunnel across network in first in/first out manner.

Simply put,

fifo server file is: monotech_fifo.pl
This script require Net::Server::NonBlocking at least 4.1(you can grab from CPAN)

% perl monotech_fifo.pl < address > < port >

and itll show up like this:

[root@WongWai monotech_fifo]# perl monotech_fifo.pl 192.168.3.52 12000
Listen on 192.168.3.52:20005
Listen on 192.168.3.52:12000

12000 is the port in which the fifo resides.
20005 is the port in which backoffice management resides.

--------------------------------------------------

port 20005 in which the management control resides can be accessed by "admin.pl"

% perl admin.pl < address >

for example

perl admin.pl 192.168.3.52

itll show something like this:

message>

where you can type some commands and press enter

the commands are:

message>readers
message>flush

(flush is the command that read all socket buffer of the admin client socket)

to show all reader in the fifo, it is very useful when some reader is connection disconnected by his ISP or readers machine hangs, the fifo will hold his connection forever (It is because the monotech_fifo.pl doesnt set SO_KEEPALIVE and TCP_KEEPALIVE which will be fixed in the future)

and

message>kill_reader[tab]< fifo name >

to kill any connection of < fifo name >

This package is heavily used by my company, so it is likely reliable.

KDE Network Mapper is a network discovery, probing, and scanning tool. It is a KDE GUI for nmap.
Individual hosts or entire subnets can be scanned simultaneously, and the results are shown in the interface as queries finish, so the user neednt wait for the entire scan to finish.
Main features:
- Save to/Load from simple XML format.
- NMap Scanning.
- NMap XML Import.
Enhancements:
- Removed KDE 3.1 support...seriously, upgrade.
- Migrated to UIC for the prefs, more UIC coming soon.
- Refactored the host info page.
- We have graphics now!
- Near full revamp of nmap code, new parsing, scanning, and presentation.
- The automake code is less braindead now.
- Stability has increased overall, as well as usefullness.
- Seriously, soo many changes, if you want the details, than diff -Naur it.

Network Communicator is a simple script for sending and receiving data over TCP/UDP connections.
It can be useful for testing firewall configurations, routing tables, and similar things.
I had originally written two scripts for testing TCP only: a talker and a listener. Upon failure to properly modify them to support UDP only, I made Netcom. It allows the sending and receiving of TCP or UDP data to arbitrary IPs/Ports and optional from/to files.
Im sure there are already tools like this out there like netcat, but wasnt able to get netcat working properly for UDP also. Either way, here you go and enjoy!
Launch Netcom with no options to view the usage.
Enhancements:
- A complete re-write to support arbitrary source/destination and port forwarding (not tunneling).

Skipole Network Monitor project is a simple network monitor with built in web server.

It allows the user to input host IP addresses, it then pings these hosts every five minutes and displays their status via a built-in web server, on port 8000.

So calling http://your_pc_address:8000 will display pages showing green, yellow or red host or group symbols.

Each host is pinged four times every five minutes, and symbols are displayed as:

green : if three or four pings are successfull
yellow : if only one or two are successfull
red : if all four fail

As well as hosts, group symbols are displayed, and can be opened to show hosts, or sub-groups nested within. The operator can create groups, and sub-groups via the gui.
