Packet Sender is a Windows program that enables you to transfer network packets via several communication protocols, covering most common testing needs. It is possible to customize the preferred data type and target individual ports or IP addresses. Moreover, there is support for encrypted connections.

Network evaluation

The application lets users figure out transfer delays and identify potential bottlenecks in the current LAN environment. Instruments for working with the following protocols are available:

UDP;
TCP;
SSL.

You can easily personalize the contents of the outgoing package, filling it with either hexadecimal values or plain text. Like in XSpider, an option to define specific ports and IP addresses is provided. The utility may listen for incoming packets as well, streamlining real time network response testing and debugging.

Potential use cases

Security professionals are able to use Packer Sender to evaluate target systems and detect critical vulnerabilities in network configurations. Additionally, it provides a great way to explore how different types of traffic interact with various services.
