  7. Abstract:
  8. Generating real traffic and attacks for network equipment and applications are not yet considered a clear straight forward subject. To overcome this issue, we produce real traffic and then add some vulnerability attacks to it. This is an important step towards achieving security tests or evaluation methods which let us examine or assess intrusion detection (IDSs) features of a system.In this dissertation, we generate legitimate and anomalous traffic beside some attacks. Our study yields an implementation which is tested in real environment. We introduce a substantial method to generate DDoS attack in network and transport layers. We develop a software tool for this purpose. The performance of our software is quite comparable to famous software-based traffic generators. Our software is easy to use and also to launch. It is possible to transform it easily from a packet generator to a DDoS attack generator according to our method for generating DDoS traffic. Finally, the experimental results show that the performance of our software to produce legitimate traffic is quite acceptable compared to other software based traffic generators. Our software is also capable to produce some well-known DDoS attacks, which are verified by a real and professional Intrusion Detection System
