flood_rs6(8)

💅 flood_rs6 — manual page, but make it cute

okay so real talk, this is from the IPv6 section of the manual (section 8, sysadmin flavour), and bestie, it does exactly one thing but it does it loudly 💖

---

✨ NAME ✨

flood_rs6 — yes that's the whole name, she's an icon, she doesn't need a subtitle 👑

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

flood_rs6 [-sS] interface [target]

So you run it with an interface (required, no skipsies) and optionally a target, plus the flags -s and/or -S if you want to get spicy 🌶️

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so what does she do. She floods the local network with ICMPv6 Router Soliciation packets. That's it, that's the whole vibe — the local network is getting a whole lot of Router Soliciation and you're the one holding the aux cord 😭🔥

Here's the flag tea, and it's giving very much "identity crisis on purpose":

• -s — uses random source IPv6 addresses. Literally not me remembering my own address, can't relate, never met her 💀
• -S — also randomizes the MAC. So on top of the random source IPv6, the MAC gets a whole new outfit too. Double slay, double unrecognizable 🎀

⚠️ bestie this is a flood tool, fr fr — the name is not a metaphor. Only point this at networks you actually own or have permission to test, okay? 🫶
