FRAGTEST(8)		    System Manager's Manual		   FRAGTEST(8)

NAME
       fragtest	- test IP fragment reassembly behaviour

SYNOPSIS
       fragtest	TESTS ... host

DESCRIPTION
       fragtest	 probes	 the  remote host to determine its TCP/IP stack	behav-
       iour.

       The TESTS may include any of the	following (or may be specified as  all
       to perform them all):

       ping   Send an ICMP echo	request	to the host.

       ip-opt Send  ICMP echo requests with different IP options, to see which
	      IP options are supported.

       frag   Send an ICMP echo	request	as 8-byte fragments.

       frag-new
	      Send an ICMP echo	request	as 8-byte fragments with  an  overlap-
	      ping 16-byte fragment, favoring newer data in reassembly.

       frag-old
	      Send  an	ICMP echo request as 8-byte fragments with an overlap-
	      ping 16-byte fragment, favoring older data in reassembly.

       frag-timeout
	      Send an ICMP echo	request	as 8-byte fragments, omitting the last
	      fragment,	and wait for an	ICMP  time-exceeded-in-reassembly  re-
	      ply.
