Any number of toolsets should work. You could look at things like
initiating scans from NMAP, satan and vulnerability scanners. Throughput
could be tested with a smartbits, ixia and other traffic generators.

Subject: Test scripts for NIDS
Hi all,
I'm looking for tools that can test the effectiveness
of an NIDS like:
- How much load can it take before dropping packets ?
- What attacks can it detect or not detect
etc...
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
