network-tools

a container image contains many network tools, such as:

• curl: curl is used in command lines or scripts to transfer data.
• wget: GNU Wget is a free software package for retrieving files using HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and FTPS, the most widely used Internet protocols.
• telnet: Telnet (short for "teletype network") is a client/server application protocol that provides access to virtual terminals of remote systems on local area networks or the Internet.
• ping: ping is a computer network administration software utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (IP) network.
• arp: The arp command in Linux is used to view, add and delete the entries present in the ARP cache – the table which contains the mapping of IP Addresses to MAC Addresses for hosts on the local network.
• arping: arping is a tool for probing hosts in a network.
• nc: The Netcat ( nc ) command is a command-line utility for reading and writing data between two computer networks.
• nmap: Nmap is Linux command-line tool for network exploration and security auditing.
• iperf: Iperf is an open source networking tool used to measure throughput or performance of a network. It can be used to test TCP and UDP.
• scapy: Scapy is a powerful interactive packet manipulation program.
• ip: The ip command is a powerful tool for configuring network interfaces that any Linux system administrator should know.
• ifconfig: ifconfig(interface configuration) command is used to configure the kernel-resident network interfaces.
• brctl: brctl stands for Bridge Control. In Linux, this command is used to create and manipulate ethernet bridge.
• bridge: show / manipulate bridge addresses and devices
• route: route command in Linux is used when you want to work with the IP/kernel routing table.
• dig: The dig command in Linux is used to gather DNS information.
• nslookup: Nslookup (stands for “Name Server Lookup”) is a useful command for getting information from the DNS server.
• ab: Apache HTTP server benchmarking tool is a linux shell software useful to perform a performance benchmark of a webpage of a website.
• tcpdump: tcpdump is a packet sniffing and packet analyzing tool for a System Administrator to troubleshoot connectivity issues in Linux.
• tshark: TShark is a network protocol analyzer. (use --privileged to run container)
• httpd: HTTPd is a software program that usually runs in the background, as a process, and plays the role of a server in a client–server model using the HTTP and/or HTTPS network protocol(s). (run httpd to start a simple http server listen at port 80)
• openssl: OpenSSL is a robust, commercial-grade, full-featured Open Source Toolkit for the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol formerly known as the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. The protocol implementation is based on a full-strength general purpose cryptographic library, which can also be used stand-alone.
• go-httpbin: A reasonably complete and well-tested golang port of Kenneth Reitz's httpbin service, with zero dependencies outside the go stdlib. https://github.com/mccutchen/go-httpbin
• traceroute: Traceroute is a simple yet clever command-line tool for tracing the path an IP packet takes across one or many networks.
• mtr: Mtr is a network diagnostic tool that combines ping and traceroute into one program.
• ss: ss is used to dump socket statistics. It allows showing information similar to netstat. It can display more TCP and state information than other tools.
• iptables: Iptables is used to set up, maintain, and inspect the tables of IP packet filter rules in the Linux kernel. Several different tables may be defined. Each table contains a number of built-in chains and may also contain user-defined chains.
• netstat: Print network connections, routing tables, interface statistics, masquerade connections, and multicast memberships
• whois: whois searches for an object in a WHOIS database.
• stress-ng: stress-ng will stress test a computer system in various selectable ways. It was designed to exercise various physical subsystems of a computer as well as the various operating system kernel interfaces. stress-ng also has a wide range of CPU specific stress tests that exercise floating point, integer, bit manipulation and control flow.
