Hogging bandwidth #47

Closed jaikishantulswani closed 4 years ago

Hi @proabiral Than you for this great tool, having one issue like Inception hogging all the bandwidth even when the threads are set between 10-20

geeknik commented 4 years ago

Unable to confirm this, our $5/mo VPS used this bandwidth with default threads. This particular run was against a private network containing over 90,000 hosts:

@geeknik Thank you for responding :)

@jaikishantulswani , the tool only sends requests as specified in the provider.json. If you are running on Home Network, try switching to some VPS provider.

geeknik commented 4 years ago

@proabiral You're welcome. Worth noting, our production provider.json includes 37 "vulnerability" tests for a total of 581 lines of text. Our test provider.json has 107 "vulnerability" tests and 1792 lines of text. Even at our local office which has a 25meg DSL line, we still only see 5-6mbps usage during tests against a large private network.

Hi @geeknik @proabiral thank you for your response on this. My provider.json file is having only 15 vulnerability and scanning on approx 4k hosts with 20 threads, after running this I am not able to even browse any site.

Hi @jaikishantulswani , Try switching to VPS provider. Or you can use Free Google Cloud Shell.
