- Welcome to the [hping] wiki (see: [what's hping]). The aim of this site is to create a collaborative environment to document hping, share programming tips, and share hping scripts.
- But we are not limited thus! *All security related topics can be discussed here*, including topics related to security tools programming, as long as the author creates the wiki page and titles it appropriately.
- The key point here is *high quality content*.
+ HI
+ Welcome to the [hping] wiki.
  
+ ===What's Hping?===
+ 
+ hping is a free packet generator and analyzer for the [TCP/IP] protocol. Hping is one of the de-facto tools for security auditing and testing of firewalls and networks, and was used to exploit the [Idle Scan] scanning technique now implemented in the [Nmap] port scanner. The new version of hping, hping3, is scriptable using the [Tcl] language and implements an engine for string based, human readable description of TCP/IP packets, so that the programmer can write scripts related to low level TCP/IP packet manipulation and analysis in a very short time.
+ 
+ Like most tools used in computer security, hping is useful to security experts, but there are a lot of applications related to network testing and system administration.
+ For more information see the [what's hping] page.

+ === About this site===
+ 
+ The aim of this site is to create a collaborative environment to document hping, share programming tips and hping scripts, and much more. *Many topics can be discussed here*, including topics related to security tools programming, Tcl, networking, as long as the author creates the wiki page and titles it appropriately.
+ The key point here is non-spam content of course, and to make sure contents are not copyrighted.
