Tarpit services to slowly send data to incoming tcp connections.

• string? ListenAddress, listener ip address
• string? Ports, comma seperated list of ports and port ranges
• bool UseIPv4Only, defaults to both ipv4 and ipv6, set to true for ipv4 only
• int WriteIntervalInMs, data send interval
• int WriteSize, the amount of bytes to send per interval
• int UpdateIntervalInSeconds, ConnectionsUpdated event interval
• int TimeoutInSeconds, connection timout
• string? ResponseFile (optional), filepath to a file containing the response data
• string? ResponseText (optional), response data

using Code2.Net.TcpTarpit;
using System.Text;

var options = new TarpitServiceOptions
{
	ListenAddress = "192.168.2.23",
	Ports = "10-99",
	UseIPv4Only = true,
	WriteIntervalInMs = 200,
	WriteSize = 6,
	UpdateIntervalInSeconds = 3,
	TimeoutInSeconds = 600,
	//ResponseFile = null
	ResponseText = "0123456789"
};

var service = new TarpitService(options);
service.Start();
service.ConnectionsUpdated += (sender, args) =>
{
	string[] lines = args.Connections.Select(x => $"{x.RemoteEndPoint}\t{x.BytesSent}\t{Encoding.UTF8.GetString(x.Buffer)}").ToArray();
	foreach (var line in lines)
	{
		Console.WriteLine(line);
	}
};
Console.WriteLine("Service started with listeners {0}", service.ListenersCount);

Console.ReadKey();
service.Stop();

Console.WriteLine("Service stopped.");

The above code starts TarpitService listening on 90 endpoints from 192.168.2.23:10 till 192.168.2.23:90. Any incoming connections within the range will be accepted and added to a list of active connections. Every interval the active connections will sent the writesize in bytes from the responsetext option. The connection will be marked completed when a send data operation fails, or the timeout of 10 minutes exceeds. When marked completed after the next ConnectionsUpdated event it gets removed from the active connections list.

Service stopped.

Each connection has a unique id.
ConnectionsUpdated event timing vary when UpdateIntervalInSeconds is not a multiple of WriteIntervalInMs.
When the service stops it will complete active connections and send a last ConnectionsUpdated event.
If the data sent total bytes exceeds the data defined, it starts from the front (see InfiniteReader)
