Parallel Internet measurement utility
Scamper is a program that is able to conduct Internet measurement
tasks to large numbers of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, in parallel, to
fill a specified packets-per-second rate. Currently, it supports the
well-known ping and traceroute techniques, as well as MDA traceroute,
alias resolution, some parts of tbit, sting, and neighbour discovery.
Scamper can do ICMP-based Path MTU discovery. scamper starts with the
outgoing interface's MTU and discovers the location of Path MTU
bottlenecks. scamper performs a PMTUD search when an ICMP
fragmentation required message is not returned to establish the PMTU
to the next point in the network, followed by a TTL limited search to
infer where the failure appears to occur.

Revision 19 (latest revision is 28)
- Update to version 20230224: - scamper: - allow multiple parallel measurements to the same destination, - provided the measurements have probe signatures that scamper can - distinguish. - return the associated task ID with each DATA blob in control socket. - this task ID matches the ID returned in an OK when scamper accepted - the task. - in ping, only compute delay statistics on responses from destination. - in ping, allow timeout to be expressed in fractions of a second. - libscamperfile: - support reading gz-compressed warts files. - libscamperctrl: - add libscamperctrl, a library to interact with a collection of - scamper instances. - modify sc_ally, sc_filterpolicy, sc_prefixscan, sc_speedtrap, and - sc_pinger to use this library. - this library is likely to evolve. current behaviour is documented - in libscamperctrl manual page. - misc: - improve sc_wartsfilter manual page with examples. - add remote control socket support to sc_pinger. - fix kqueue/epoll loop in sc_remoted. - consistently use size_t throughout when counting number of items. - build without warnings using -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter. - improvements through adding function attributes to printf-like - functions. - deorbit some unused functions from utils.c.
