ISIC is a suite of utilities to exercise the stability
of an IP Stack and its component stacks (TCP, UDP, ICMP
et. al.) It generates piles of pseudo random packets of
the target protocol. The packets be given tendancies to
conform to. ie 50% of the packets generated can have IP
Options. 25% of the packets can be IP fragments... But
the percentages are arbitrary and most of the packet
fields have a configurable tendancy. 

The packets are then sent against the target machine to
either penetrate its firewall rules or find bugs in the
IP stack.

ISIC also contains a utility generate raw ether frames
to examine hardware implementations. 

Other Uses:

Other novel uses people have found for ISIC include IDS
testing, stack fingerprinting, breaking sniffers and
barraging the IRC kiddie. 

Dependancy:

Libnet 

Warning:
	
ISIC may break shit, melt your network, knock out your firewall,
or singe the fur off your cat
