There is another product out there that does something similar running on
windows though, I think has over a 1000 attack tests in it, traffic iq pro
at www.karalon.com

It's run by an ex colleague of mine who developed the Informer products if
you have heard of them.

Yes, that's the one I was looking for. Thanks everyone for the replies.

I was wrong about the source of the information. It's referenced in a
different book:

Network Security Hacks
100 Industrial-Strength Tips & Tools
By Andrew Lockhart

I'll try to use it in one of my firewall tests and will report on the
results.
