I was bored so decided to play with hping3 a bit tonight.

[jlgaddis@bertram:~]$ sudo hping3 --udp -p 10000 --destport 10000 --flood 192.168.1.12
HPING 192.168.1.12 (eth0 192.168.1.12): udp mode set, 28 headers + 1400 data bytes
hping in flood mode, no replies will be shown

I have the same thing running 192.168.1.12 as well, for “bi-directional” traffic.
