Following on this, does anybody know of traffic generator which can take a 
network address as target and send packets to each address in that network? 
In using spak (http://www.xenos.net/software/spak/) I had to write a script 
to send packets to each address in the network because the generator accepts 
only a single IP address as target.

Thanks,
Ashok
