List types


Element	Description	Sample Values
Dictionary	A "value-per-line" file used when generating usernames/passwords for the attack. Default files are provided for both Usernames and Passwords, but you can use the Browse button to browse to any other suitable file. The data folder also includes a much larger password dictionary file (passwords_long.txt) that can be used instead of the default file.	pathname to "value-per-line" dictionary file
Numeric	A range for numbers that will be included in the usernames/passwords generated	0 to 999999999
Constant	A string that you want included in all usernames/passwords that are generated	any string
Character Range	A range of characters and string length, for characters that will be included in the usernames/passwords that are generated	[space to tilde] -~ and a string length

Note: The space to tilde range includes a-z, A-Z, 0-9, and ASCII input symbols. If you enter " -~" (without the quotes) as a Character Range, Authentication Tester automatically inserts all included characters in the regular expression listing.

The valid value of the length field depends on the range. For example, if the range is 0-9 and the length is 10, the range is valid [0000000000, 0000000001, ...9999999999]; but if the range is a-z, Authentication Tester will not accept 10 as a valid length because the number of combinations would take an unreasonable amount of time and resources.

Note: To use a dash as a character, rather than to denote a range, precede it with a backslash: \-
