- -r string, --portmap=string
-
Rewrite TCP/UDP ports. This option may appear up to 9999 times.
Specify a list of comma delimited port mappings consisting of
colon delimited port number pairs. Each colon delimited port pair
consists of the port to match followed by the port number to
rewrite.
Examples:
--portmap=80:8000 --portmap=8080:80 # 80->8000 and 8080->80
--portmap=8000,8080,88888:80 # 3 different ports become 80
--portmap=8000-8999:80 # ports 8000 to 8999 become 80
- -s number, --seed=number
-
Randomize src/dst IPv4/v6 addresses w/ given seed. This option may appear up
to 1 times. This option must not appear in combination with any of the
following options: fuzz-seed. This option takes an integer number as its
argument.
Causes the source and destination IPv4/v6 addresses to be
pseudo randomized but still maintain client/server relationships. Since
the randomization is deterministic based on the seed, you can reuse the
same seed value to recreate the traffic.
- -N string, --pnat=string
-
Rewrite IPv4/v6 addresses using pseudo-NAT. This option may appear up to 2
times. This option must not appear in combination with any of the
following options: srcipmap.
Takes a comma delimited series of colon delimited CIDR
netblock pairs. Each netblock pair is evaluated in order against the IP
addresses. If the IP address in the packet matches the first netblock,
it is rewritten using the second netblock as a mask against the high
order bits.
IPv4 Example:
--pnat=192.168.0.0/16:10.77.0.0/16,172.16.0.0/12:10.1.0.0/24
IPv6 Example:

- -S string, --srcipmap=string
-
Rewrite source IPv4/v6 addresses using pseudo-NAT. This option may appear up

IP addresses in the IPv4/v6 header.
- -D string, --dstipmap=string
-
Rewrite destination IPv4/v6 addresses using pseudo-NAT. This option may
appear up to 1 times. This option must not appear in combination with any

to 1 times. This option must appear in combination with the following
options: cachefile.
Takes a pair of colon delimited IPv4/v6 addresses which will
be used to rewrite all traffic to appear to be between the two IP
addresses.
IPv4 Example:

--endpoints=[2001:db8::dead:beef]:[::ffff:0:0:ac:f:0:2]

amount based on the provided seed.
- -b, --skipbroadcast
-
Skip rewriting broadcast/multicast IPv4/v6 addresses.
By default --seed, --pnat and --endpoints will rewrite
broadcast and multicast IPv4/v6 and MAC addresses. Setting this flag
will keep broadcast/multicast IPv4/v6 and MAC addresses from being
rewritten.
- -C, --fixcsum
-
Force recalculation of IPv4/TCP/UDP header checksums.
Causes each IPv4/v6 packet to have their checksums
recalculated and fixed. Automatically enabled for packets modified with
--seed, --pnat, --endpoints or --fixlen.
- -m number, --mtu=number
-
Override default MTU length (1500 bytes). This option may appear up to 1
times. This option takes an integer number as its argument. The value of
number is constrained to being:
in the range 1 through MAX_SNAPLEN
Override the default 1500 byte MTU size for determining the
maximum padding length (--fixlen=pad) or when truncating
(--mtu-trunc).
- --mtu-trunc
-
Truncate packets larger then specified MTU. This option may appear up to 1
times.
Similar to --fixlen, this option will truncate data in packets
from Layer 3 and above to be no larger then the MTU.
- -E, --efcs
-
Remove Ethernet checksums (FCS) from end of frames.
Note, this option is pretty dangerous! We do not actually
check to see if a FCS actually exists in the frame, we just blindly
delete the last 4 bytes. Hence, you should only use this if you know
know that your OS provides the FCS when reading raw packets.
- --ttl=string
-
Modify the IPv4/v6 TTL/Hop Limit.
Allows you to modify the TTL/Hop Limit of all the IPv4/v6
packets. Specify a number to hard-code the value or +/-value to increase

effect on IPv4 packets.
- -F string, --fixlen=string
-
Pad or truncate packet data to match header length. This option may appear
up to 1 times.
Packets may be truncated during capture if the snaplen is
smaller then the packet. This option allows you to modify the packet to
pad the packet back out to the size stored in the IPv4/v6 header or
rewrite the IP header total length to reflect the stored packet
length.
pad Truncated packets will be padded out so that the
packet length matches the IPv4 total length
trunc Truncated packets will have their IPv4 total
length field rewritten to match the actual packet length
del Delete the packet
- --fuzz-seed=number
-
Fuzz 1 in X packets. Edit bytes, length, or emulate packet drop. This option
takes an integer number as its argument. The value of number is
constrained to being:
greater than or equal to 0
The default number for this option is:
0
This fuzzing was designed as to test layer 7 protocols such as
voip protocols. It modifies randomly 1 out of X packets (where X =
--fuzz-factor) in order for stateful protocols to cover more of
their code. The random fuzzing actions focus on data start and end
because it often is the part of the data application protocols base
their decisions on.
Possible fuzzing actions list:
* drop packet
* reduce packet size
* edit packet Bytes:
* Not all Bytes have the same probability of appearance in real life.
Replace with 0x00, 0xFF, or a random byte with equal likelihood.
* Not all Bytes have the same significance in a packet.
Replace the start, the end, or the middle of the packet with equal
likelihood.
* do nothing (7 out of 8 packets)
- --fuzz-factor=number
-
Set the Fuzz 1 in X packet ratio (default 1 in 8 packets). This option must
appear in combination with the following options: fuzz-seed. This option
takes an integer number as its argument. The value of number is
constrained to being:
greater than or equal to 1
The default number for this option is:
8
Sets the ratio of for --fuzz-seed option. By default
this value is 8, which means 1 in 8 packets are modified by fuzzing.
Note that this ratio is based on the random number generated by the
supplied fuzz seed. Therefore by default you cannot expect that exactly
every eighth packet will be modified.
- --skipl2broadcast
-
Skip rewriting broadcast/multicast Layer 2 addresses.
By default, editing Layer 2 addresses will rewrite broadcast
and multicast MAC addresses. Setting this flag will keep
broadcast/multicast MAC addresses from being rewritten.

ethernet header. If a VLAN header already exists, a new VLAN header is
added outside of the existing header.
Note that you will be allowed to run this option multiple
times to create more than 2 VLAN headers, however those packets will be
valid. At most you should have 2 X 802.1q VLAN tags, or outer an 802.1ad
