PacketSender
Network utility for sending and receiving TCP, UDP, SSL packets
Not tested on a device yet. What that means
PacketSender in Breadstick
Breadstick runs Debian's own packetsender package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so PacketSender should look and behave as it does on a Linux PC. On Samsung DeX, Floating mode opens it as its own window beside your Android apps, and Desktop mode runs it on a full Linux desktop.
Linux apps use Android's own network connection, and a VPN connected in Android covers them too. More about internet apps in Breadstick.
About PacketSender
From the project's description
Packet Sender sends and receives TCP, UDP and SSL (encrypted TCP) packets on the ports of your choosing. It supports IPv4 and IPv6 and provides a GUI for final users. However, is also possible use Packet Sender in text mode via command line. Some features:
* Can act as client/server to send and receive network traffic.
* A payload can be created in ASCII or hex.
* Command line mode is available for automation and scripting.
* Packet Sender cloud is a disposable resource to be used to publicly display and distribute packets (via an URL) for collaboration, tutorials, end users, etc. Packet Sender may import public packet sets with public URL. Some uses:
* Control network-based devices in ways beyond their original apps.
* Test automation (using command line tool and/or hotkeys).
* Test network APIs (using the built-in TCP, UDP, SSL clients).
* Malware analysis (using the built-in UDP, TCP, SSL servers).
* Troubleshoot secure connections (using SSL).
* Test network connectivity/firewalls (by having 2 Packet Senders talk to each other).
* Stress-test a device (using intense network generator tool).
* Tech support (by sending customers a portable Packet Sender with pre-defined settings and packets).
* Share/Save/Collaborate using the Packet Sender Cloud service.
Packet Sender is useful for network security, network teaching, pentesters and to test firewall systems.
