Usage
Hummelflug in a Nutshell
At first you want to set up your swarm:
php hummelflug create
Before you can attack your target you need to wake up your swarm:
php hummelflug up
Now you can attack your target:
php hummelflug attack <URL>
Tired of attacking peaceful servers?
php hummelflug down
The caveat! (PLEASE READ)
If you decide to use Hummelflug, please keep in mind the following important caveat: they are, more-or-less a distributed denial-of-service attack in a fancy package and, therefore, if you point them at any server you don’t own you will behaving unethically, have your Amazon Web Services account locked-out, and be liable in a court of law for any downtime you cause.
You have been warned.
