SYNOPSIS

nemesis [mode] [options]

DESCRIPTION

The Nemesis Project is designed to be a command line-based, portable human IP stack for UNIX-like and Windows systems. The suite is broken down by protocol, and should allow for useful scripting of injected packets from simple shell scripts.

nemesis provides an interface to craft and inject a variety of arbitrary packet types. Nemesis Supports the following protocols:

arp
dns
ethernet
icmp
igmp
ip
ospf
rip
tcp
udp

A list of supported options for each protocol is displayed by supplying a protocol name on the command line followed by the option "help" (eg: nemesis ethernet help).

DIAGNOSTICS

Nemesis modules return 0 on a successful exit, 1 upon exiting on an error.

BUGS

Send concise and clearly written bug reports to jeff@snort.org
