Testing Network Ingress and Stateful Hardware

Layer 4 stress testing is vital for testing network hardware limits. By measuring packet drops, latency degradation, and route stability during controlled tests, network engineers can optimize upstream transit commitments and automated scrubbing thresholds.

  • Validate BGP Anycast automated route redirection under multi-hundred Gbps load.
  • Stress test router and switch ASIC packet processing capabilities.
  • Calibrate DDoS scrubbing appliance mitigation rules and ACLs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Layer 4 vectors does Boota support?

Boota supports UDP Amplification (DNS, NTP, CLDAP, SNMP), TCP SYN/ACK/RST floods, GRE encapsulation, and ICMP floods.
