Property Description
comment (string; Default: ) Short description of packet you are building.
data (incrementing | random |
specific-byte | uninitialized; Default:
uninitialized)
Specifies how packet payload will be filled:
• uninitialized - packets data (after header) is uninitialized, but not zero. Fastest.
• specific-byte - works together with setting data-byte
• incrementing - packets data filled with "00 01 02 03" and so on
• random - packets data filled with random bytes. Slowest.
data-byte (hex [0..FF]]; Default:
0)
Byte that will be used to fill packet payload.
interface (string; Default: ) Optional parameter of packet template. This is mutually exclusive with "port" setting. Specifying
"interface" allows user not to create a port entry for interface in port menu. In fact a port entry is created
dynamically. This is useful for running quick tests.
ip-dscp (list of integer[0..255]
(max 16 times); Default: )
Single DSCP or list of DSCP values that will be set in IP header
ip-dst (list of IP/Netmask (max 16
times); Default: )
List of destination IP addresses that will be used when generating IP headers.
ip-frag-off (list of
integer[0..65535] (max 16 times);
Default: )
List of fragmentation offsets in IP header.
ip-gateway (IP; Default: ) In situations when sender and receiver is the same device, it is impossible to determine nexthop
automatically from ip-dst. If ip-gateway is specified packet template will assume destination mac address
based on resolved ip-gateway.
ip-id (list of integer [0..65535];
Default: )
ip-protocol (list of IP protocols
(max 16 times); Default: )
ip-src (list of IP/Mask (max 16
times); Default: )
ip-ttl (list of integer [0..255] (max
16 times); Default: )
mac-dst (list of MAC/MASK (max
16 times); Default: )
mac-protocol (list of mac
protocols (max 16 times); Default: )
mac-src (list of MAC/MASK (max
16 times); Default: )
name (string; Default: ) Descriptive name of the template.
port (string; Default: ) Optional parameter of packet template. This suggests a port through which packets generated using this
template should be sent out. Port can also be specified in other places such as in stream settings. This is
mutually exclusive with interface setting.
raw-header (string (max 16 times);
Default: )
Raw packet header as string in hexadecimal format.
udp-dst-port (list of port
[0..65535]/mask [0..FFFF] (max 16
times); Default: )
udp-src-port (list of port
[0..65535]/mask [0..FFFF] (max 16
times); Default: )
