NAME
mz - a fast versatile packet generator
SYNOPSIS
/etc/mausezahn/mz.cfg
DESCRIPTION
Mausezahn is a free fast traffic generator written in C which allows
you to send nearly every possible and impossible packet. Mausezahn’s
MOPS subsystem (Mausezahn’s Own Packet System) supports an interactive
mode with a Cisco-style command line interface (CLI). In order to
activate this interactive mode, execute Mausezahn using the -x
argument, optionally followed by an arbitrary TCP port number, such as
# mz -x 99
in which case you can connect to Mausezahn via
$ telnet 127.0.0.1 99
If no port number is specified, Mausezahn uses the default port number
25542 (which is the date of towel day followed by the answer to the
universe and everything; however, you don’t need to understand this in
order to continue).
Login credentials as well as other MOPS-related parameters can be
specified in the Mausezahn configuration file mz.cfg located in
etc/mausezahn. Currently, user-specific configuration files are not
supported.
If no configuration file is present Mausezahn assumes the following
default login credentials:
username: mz
password: mz
enable password: mops
Currently only login credentials can be configured within the
configuration file. Here is an example content of
/etc/mausezahn/mz.cfg:
user = herbert
password = moTTe
enable = T0p5ecreT
Additional configuration options will be officially supported with the
next releases.
