Hello Jason.
There are several ways to accomplish what you need within CORE IMPACT.
If you use RPT the entire test is automated in 6 steps, starting with
the initial Information Gathering (step 1) and footpriting, to Attack &
Penetration (step 2), local IG (step 3, ran after one or more targets
had been compromised), priviledge escalation (step 4), clean up 9step 5)
and finally reporting (step 6). Each step is launched manually and the
corresponding actions (implemented by several "modules")are launched
automatically both sequentially and in parallel depending on the
requirements for those actions are, and on the maximun number of
concurrent running modules you configure for CORE IMPACT, you can play
with that setting to throttle the amount of parallelism you get.
Also, you can always run things manually using the Modules tab (instead
of running them from RPT). Alternatively, you can create and use a macro
that chains the execution of several modules together and run that macro
manually. Further more you can write a "glue module" in Python that just
adds a fixed or random delay between module executions and use it in
your macro-module. All modules (including attack modules) are written in
Python so you can add you own or modify the existing ones.
I've assumed that you want to throttle the attack rate (or "module
execution" rate) not the packet rate. The current version of CORE IMPACT
does not provide a feature to throttle packet rate and in fact
throttling the packet rate for certain modules might render some
attacks unrealiable or failure-prone.
