"The Codenomicon tools are amazing. Using them is like being attacked by the most relentless adversary who uses every possible method to find flaws in your code
We fixed subtle crash bugs in Samba that had been in the code for over ten years. We would never have found those bugs without the Codenomicon tools.
If you're serious about implementing protocols correctly, you need the Codenomicon tools."

Codenomicon LDP Test Tool Data Sheet
- Test tool: Codenomicon LDP Test Tool
- Direction: Server
The Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) is a protocol for exchanging label information between Label Switching Routers (LSRs). The protocol is used in MPLS networks.
