Packet Tracer allows students to design complex and large networks, which is often not feasible with physical hardware, due to costs. [7] Packet Tracer is commonly used by NetAcad students, since it is available to download after creating a free account. [10]

In my experience going through a course, physical hardware was fairly available and so Packet Tracer did not get used a whole lot, but it did get used somewhat. As the Lead Instructor of an IT program of a private college which was not using the Cisco Network Academy courses, I remember a student request for this software.
IPX/SPX stands for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange. IPX and SPX are networking protocols used initially on networks using the (since discontinued) Novell NetWare operating systems. They also became widely used on networks deploying Microsoft Windows LANs, as they replaced NetWare LANs, but are no longer widely used.
Packet Sender is an open source utility to allow sending and receiving TCP and UDP packets. It also supports TCP connections using SSL , intense traffic generation, HTTP(S) GET/POST requests, and panel generation.
On Windows, tracert sends ICMP Echo Request packets, rather than the UDP packets traceroute sends by default. [ 11 ] The time-to-live (TTL) value, also known as hop limit , is used in determining the intermediate routers being traversed towards the destination.
A packet generator or packet builder is a type of software that generates random packets or allows the user to construct detailed custom packets. Depending on the network medium and operating system, packet generators utilize raw sockets , NDIS function calls, or direct access to the network adapter kernel-mode driver .
PC/TCP Packet Driver is a networking API for MS-DOS, PC DOS, and later x86 DOS implementations such as DR-DOS, FreeDOS, etc.It implements the lowest levels of a TCP/IP stack, where the remainder is typically implemented either by terminate-and-stay-resident drivers or as a library linked into an application program.
