menuconfig NETCAT

help
This is the GNU Flavour of the "netcat" utility.
Netcat is a simple Unix utility which reads and writes
data across network connections using TCP or UDP protocol.
It is designed to be a reliable "back-end" tool that can be
used directly or easily driven by other programs and scripts.
At the same time it is a feature-rich network debugging and
exploration tool, since it can create almost any kind of
connection you would need and has several interesting built-in
capabilities.
It provides access to the following main features:
* Outbound and inbound connections, TCP or UDP,
to or from any ports.
* Featured tunneling mode which allows also special
tunneling such as UDP to TCP, with the possibility
of specifying all network parameters (source port/interface,
listening port/interface, and the remote host allowed to
connect to the tunnel.
* Built-in port-scanning capabilities, with randomizer.
* Advanced usage options, such as buffered send-mode
(one line every N seconds), and hexdump (to stderr or
to a specified file) of trasmitted and received data.
* Optional RFC854 telnet codes parser and responder.
