# Traffic Generator The machine is offline, but there is a script (**traffic-generator.sh**) for me to generate traffic to snort interface. I will use this script to trigger traffic to the snort interface. Once I run the script, it will ask you to choose the exercise type and then automatically open another terminal to show me the output of the selected action. Running the **"traffic generator.sh"** file by executing it as sudo. ![](https://2022164620-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FtzurpgroDJSMn9AFVmQP%2Fuploads%2FgMwdnUU1i1JrFtEkFlfz%2Fimage2.PNG?alt=media\&token=1dbef835-8172-4485-ac9a-67d2f6624d56) ![Following the command](https://2022164620-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FtzurpgroDJSMn9AFVmQP%2Fuploads%2F6ixiQZWvqa5pnuoiUzgt%2Fimage%203.PNG?alt=media\&token=cc64726d-07fb-4fd7-b119-20670f8c963a) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
