Abstract: A system and method of testing a computer network recording header information of data packets in a live traffic pattern on the computer network which identifies source and destination addresses for testing of the computer network; modifies the recorded header information by replacing the source and destination addresses of the recorded header information with the source and destination addresses for testing, and re-calculates the checksum for each data packet based upon the source and destination addresses for testing; and transmits a test traffic pattern with the modified header information on the computer network without establishing a live connection with the destination address.

Abstract: A computer integrated event management system is disclosed that coordinates the entire process of event planning and implementation using specialized software combined with a microcomputer network which includes a network file server, CAD/DATA station and DATA stations where facility personnel are able to efficiently plan and implement events. The system includes a fully relational database and a CAD module which are connected together using a third module such that, whenever a piece of information is changed in one place, it is automatically changed everywhere it is stored in the database. The connecting module permits the database and the CAD module to communicate by translating information from a database format into a graphic format readable by CAD software packages as well as translating the graphic information back into the database information stored in the database.
