Send ARP request from 100 different devices ( IP 100.0.0.2+100 ) to IP 100.0.0.1
Configuration:
1. Create a RAW stream between port 1 and port 2
2. Configure the Ethernet settings of the traffic stream
2.a Set destination address as Broadcast address
2.b Set Source MAC as 00:00:01:00:00:01 incremental , count 100.
3. Add the ARP header inside the Ethernet payload
3.aClick on Ethernet Payload and then on button Add protocol to frame
3.b Select Ethernen ARP
3.c Set Sender Hardware Address to matche the Source MAC adress
3.d Set the Sender Protocol Address to 100.0.0.2+100
3.e Set the Target Protocol Address to 100.0.0.1
3.f Make sure frame size is set to 64B
***The end result should look like this:
***For real ARP controll traffic do not enable any flow tracking on the Traffic Item.
The flow tracking add some extra signature/timestamp bits inside the packets that are used for statistics.
If you want to see statistics of the traffic item enable flow tracking, I suggest on MAC source as bellow. The frame size might automatically modified also.
