Packet Sender is an open source utility to allow sending and receiving TCP and UDP packets. It also supports TCP connections using SSL, intense traffic generation, HTTP(S) GET/POST requests, and panel generation. It is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. It is licensed GNU General Public License v2 and is free software.[1] Packet Sender's web site says "It's designed to be very easy to use while still providing enough features for power users to do what they need.".[2]
Troubleshooting secure connections (using the SSL server and client).
Automation (via Packet Sender's command line interface or resend feature)
Stress-testing a device (using intense network generator tool)
Sharing/Saving/Collaboration using the Packet Sender Cloud service
Packet Sender comes with a built-in TCP, UDP, and SSL server on multiple ports a user specifies. This remains running listening for packets while sending other packets.
