DoS attack using iperf in the network


I would like to do a TCP DoS attack using iperf in my simulated network. (I use mininet). The only code that I could find is the following command for making UDP burst traffic in my network which is not relevant.

(host1: 10.0.0.1) iperf -s
(host2: 10.0.0.2) iperf -c 10.0.0.1 -b 30M -l 1200 

Please let me know if there is a better code to do the TCP DoS attack using iperf or even if, there is any other code or approach to make TCP traffic as an attack.

Thanks in advance.


Solution

  • The only thing I could do is that, just to add number of iperf tx form attacker using threads. In this way,it sends packet in parallel to the server. So, I used the following code:

    host1: 10.0.0.1) iperf -s
    (host2: 10.0.0.2) iperf -c 10.0.0.1 -b 30M -l 1200 -P 6
