If software developers and network driver writers can make their own packets, can’t you? Ah, right...you’re not a developer. Your coding-fu is weak, as is mine. Still, there’s hope for us in an open source tool called Ostinato. Ostinato calls itself “Wireshark in reverse.” With Ostinato, you can make your own packets, custom crafting them any way you like. Today on the Packet Pushers Priority Queue, we’re talking with one of the Ostinato creators, Srivats P.

Throughout my career I have implemented a pretty large number of standard Cisco campus LAN designs. You know the model; a hierarchical one with access switches aggregating to a distribution layer, which then aggregates to a fast core switching layer. Pieces of the hierarchy can be collapsed into one another in situations where, for example, due to […]

In this article, I will do a walk-through of a logical network diagram. As I also said in the Physical Diagram article: I prefer to use the term “logical” instead of “L3″ because it is more easily understood by somebody unfamiliar with the OSI model. It also removes the assumption (made by many non-technical people) […]
