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-icmp provides an interface to craft and inject ICMP packets allowing the user to
specify any portion of an ICMP packet as well as lower-level IP packet
information.
ICMP Options
|
-c ICMP-type
|
Specify the
ICMP-code within the ICMP header.
|
|
-e ICMP-ID
|
Specify the
ICMP-ID within the ICMP header.
|
|
-G preferred-gateway
|
Specify the
preferred-gateway-IP-address for ICMP redirect injection.
|
|
-i ICMP-type
|
Specify the
ICMP-type within the ICMP header.
|
|
-m address-mask
|
Specify the
IP-address-mask for ICMP address mask packets.
|
|
-P payload-file
|
This will case nemesis-icmp to use the specified
payload-file as the payload when injecting ICMP packets. For packets injected using the
raw interface (where -d is not used), the maximum payload size is
65387 bytes. For packets injected using the link layer interface
(where -d IS used), the maximum payload size is 1352 bytes. Payloads can also
be read from stdin by specifying ’-P -’ instead of a payload file.
Windows systems are limited to a maximum payload size of 1352 bytes for ICMP
packets.
|
|
-q ICMP-injection-mode
|
Specify the
ICMP-injection-mode to use when injecting. Valid modes are:
-qE (ICMP echo)
-qM (ICMP address mask)
-qU (ICMP unreachable)
-qX (ICMP time exceeded)
-qR (ICMP redirect)
-qT (ICMP timestamp)
Only one mode may be specified at a time.
|
|
-s ICMP-sequence-number
|
Specify the
ICMP-sequence-number within the ICMP header.
|
|
-v verbose-mode
|
Display the injected packet in human readable form. Use twice to see a hexdump
of the injected packet with printable ASCII characters on the right. Use three
times for a hexdump without decoded ASCII.
|
|
ICMP TIMESTAMP OPTIONS
|
-a ICMP-timestamp-request-reply-transmit-time
|
Specify the
ICMP-timestamp-request-reply-transmit-time (the time a reply to an ICMP timestamp request was transmitted)
within the ICMP timestamp header.
|
|
-o ICMP-timestamp-request-transmit-time
|
Specify the
ICMP-timestamp-request-transmit-time (the time an ICMP timestamp request was transmitted)
within the ICMP timestamp header.
|
|
-r ICMP-timestamp-request-reply-received-time
|
Specify the
ICMP-timestamp-request-reply-received-time (the time a reply to an ICMP timestamp request was received)
within the ICMP timestamp header.
|
|
ICMP ORIGINAL DATAGRAM OPTIONS
|
-b original-destination-IP-address
|
Specify the
original-destination-IP-address within an ICMP unreachable, redirect or time exceeded packet.
|
|
-B original-source-IP-address
|
Specify the
original-source-IP-address within an ICMP unreachable, redirect or time exceeded packet.
|
|
-f original-fragmentation-options
|
Specify the
original-IP-fragmentation-options within an ICMP unreachable, redirect or time exceeded packet. For more
information reference the ’-F’ command line switch.
|
|
-j original-IP-TOS
|
Specify the
original-IP-type-of-service (TOS) within an ICMP unreachable, redirect or time exceeded packet.
|
|
-J original-IP-TTL
|
Specify the
original-IP-time-to-live (TTL) within an ICMP unreachable, redirect or time exceeded packet.
|
|
-l original-IP-options-file
|
This will cause nemesis-icmp to use the specified
original-IP-options-file as the options when building the original IP header for the injected ICMP
unreachable, redirect or time exceeded packet. IP options can be up to 40
bytes in length. The IP options file must be created manually based upon the
desired options. IP options can also be read from stdin by specifying ’-O -’
instead of an IP-options-file.
|
|
-p original-IP-protocol
|
Specify the
original-IP-protocol within an ICMP unrechable, redirect or time exceeded packet.
|
|
IP OPTIONS
|
-D destination-IP-address
|
Specify the
destination-IP-address within the IP header.
|
|
-F fragmentation-options (-F[D],[M],[R],[offset])
|
Specify the
fragmentation options:
-FD (don’t fragment)
-FM (more fragments)
-FR (reserved flag)
-F <offset>
within the IP header. IP fragmentation options can be specified individually
or combined into a single argument to the -F command line switch by separating
the options with commas (eg. ’-FD,M’) or spaces (eg. ’-FM 223’). The IP
fragmentation offset is a 13-bit field with valid values from 0 to 8189.
Don’t fragment (DF), more fragments (MF) and the reserved flag (RESERVED or RB)
are 1-bit fields.
NOTE: Under normal conditions, the reserved flag is unset.
|
|
-I IP-ID
|
Specify the
IP-ID within the IP header.
|
|
-O IP-options-file
|
This will cause nemesis-icmp to use the specified
IP-options-file as the options when building the IP header for the injected packet. IP
options can be up to 40 bytes in length. The IP options file must be created
manually based upon the desired options. IP options can also be read from
stdin by specifying ’-O -’ instead of an IP-options-file.
|
|
-S source-IP-address
|
Specify the
source-IP-address within the IP header.
|
|
-t IP-TOS
|
Specify the
IP-type-of-service (TOS) within the IP header. Valid type of service values:
2 (Minimize monetary cost)
4 (Maximize reliability)
8 (Maximize throughput)
24 (Minimize delay)
NOTE: Under normal conditions, only one type of service is set within a
packet. To specify multiple types, specify the sum of the desired values as
the type of service.
|
|
-T IP-TTL
|
IP-time-to-live (TTL) within the IP header.
|
|
DATA LINK OPTIONS
|
-d Ethernet-device
|
Specify the name (for UNIX-like systems) or the number (for Windows systems)
of the
Ethernet-device to use (eg. fxp0, eth0, hme0, 1).
|
|
-H source-MAC-address
|
Specify the
source-MAC-address (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX).
|
|
-M destination-MAC-address
|
Specify the
destintion-MAC-address (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX).
|
|
-Z list-network-interfaces
|
Lists the available network interfaces by number for use in link-layer
injection.
NOTE: This feature is only relevant to Windows systems.
|
