Hello

Has anyone developed a piece of test code to try and render unresponsive a 
networked device by creating flood pings / "all call" packets.  If so is 
the source code available / or what was done to test a network device 
against such a issue.

My information is a network with a NT server is especially likely to 
produce such packets and has caused some embedded devices to fail due to 
processor starvation by servicing non-stop packet interrupts.

Any opinions of this?  It has been indicated to me that companies have seen 
this before and this is a situation that needs to be tested for. (although 
this problem is bad networking form)

Regards John
