[Snort-users] Semi-OT: Re-inject tcpdump captured traffic

Subject: [Snort-users] Semi-OT: Re-inject tcpdump captured traffic
Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 11:40:05 +0100
I all,

I'm building a transparent FW for a production environment; to reproduce 
the same conidtions in testing environment as a real production 
environment I have the next idea:

* capture a big chunks of real incoming traffic with tcpdump or snort.
* traslate these amount of real captured traffic in the test environment 
and re-inject it in network to simulate/reproduce the real conditions

I've searched and tried about it and at present moment I've:

* capture the traffic with -w option of tcpdump
* reinject the dumped traffic whith iperf or hping

The main question is I'm not sure about that iperf or hping re-inject 
exactly the same code which tcpdump has captured. I'm not sure if these 
tools treat the dumped traffic as a normal file or, effectively, they 
read the dumped code and re-inject exactly the same network captured 
packets without any changes.

¿Can I do it with Snort?
