Packet Sender

Packet Sender is an intuitive and very simple to handle piece of software created to assist you in sending as well as receiving TCP and UDP packets to a preferred address in your network.

Neatly-organized and compact GUI

Appearance-wise, the program is fairly easy to understand and work with, its straightforward looks making it accessible even to the less knowledgeable individuals.
The main window allows you to specify the details of the piece of data that you wish to dispatch, the panels on the second half allowing you to further benefit from the utility's features.

Swiftly send and receive network packets

For starters, when sending a new packet, you need to specify its name, then input its ASCII or HEX representation. Entering either one of the two will automatically generate its equivalent in the other code type, so you do not need to calculate the HEX correspondent of a written message, for instance.
Next up, you will need to input the IP address; Packet Sender supports IPv4, IPv6 and DNS Lookup. You also have to enter a port number between 1 and 65535, as it cannot be left blank, nor can you enter 0.
The program allows you to choose the protocol you prefer, between UDP and TCP, from a dedicated menu. You can then click the ‘Send’ button to dispatch your packet, or you can ‘Save’ it for later.
In the ‘Traffic Log’ you will be able to view all sent and received data, while from the ‘Settings’ section, the tool’s ‘Display’ and ‘Network’ options can be configured according to your specific needs.

A lightweight network packet transfer utility

In closing, Packet Sender is a useful and practical application that you can resort to, should you need to send or receive data packets in your network, its usage translating into minimal strain on your system’s resources.
