#12 IRC Botnet
As the manual states in page 12, "NeSSi2 provides out-of-the box support for various attack scenarios such as bot networks initiating DDoS attacks. Here, infected end device nodes, “zombies”, are controlled by the bot net commander via the Internet Relay Chat application. The commander is capable of initiating different kinds of DDoS attacks like the SYN Flooding or UDP Storm. To this end, the attacker connects to an IRC communication server and sends attack commands to a chat channel all the bots are listening to. As a result, the bots execute the desired attack."
I would like very much to simulate an IRC botnet. However, the only profiles that I could found that might be close to what I need are the DDoS application and the worm application. I want to control the botmaster "commander", IRC channels, bot infection behavior, etc.
Where can I get these features?

Some changes in our underlaying model and the NeSSi2 API created incompatbelities to older NeSSi2 applications. Unfortunately, we have not yet been able to port all applications to the current NeSSi2 version and missed in reviewing the manual to remove the paragraph you mentioned.
I am not sure when we will be able to add this feature again to NeSSi2.
Are these features usable in an older release? what version?
