rain is a packeting tool used for testing system stability.
Do not abuse it.

1 - Installation
Please see INSTALL
-------------------------------------------------------------
2 - Things to remember
- The only IP options that can be customized with streamed
packets are the TOS and TTL
- When sending an IGMP membership query,
the --icmp-code specifies the "Max response time"
- If the destination address contains "255", it is automatically
assumed to be a broadcast address. (Will have no negative effect)
-------------------------------------------------------------
3 - Q&A
Q: WHY WRITE SUCH A MALICIOUS PROGRAM?
A: rain is not by any means intended to be used maliciously.
As with many stability testing programs, it can be abused by
users that do not mind violating federal law and facing the severe
consequences of their actions.
rain was created to test stability of hardware and software.
Let's say you wanted to see how your router would react if you
sent it an ICMP packet with Type 3, Code 11, ToS 0x24, window size 56,
TTL 255 and an invalid fragment offset. That is where rain comes in.
Rain allows you to create your own, customized packets without the hassle
of writing proprietary programs.
rain is free. If you do not agree with its purpose, simply disregard any
references to it in the future. I cannot control the morality of mankind.
