radump - Man Page

tcpdump processing of the user data buffers from an argus(8) data file/stream.

Synopsis

radump -r argus-file [raoptions] [-- filter-expression]

Description

Radump reads argus data from an argus data stream or file, and prints out tcpdump style decoding of the user data buffers.

Options

Radump, like all ra based clients, supports a number of ra options including filtering of input argus records through a terminating filter expression. See ra(1) for a complete description of ra options.

Example Invocation

This example dumps the user capture buffers of arp traffic seen in the file. When there is no user buffer, or if the decoder can;t decode it, the length will 0.

% radump -r argus.file -s suser:64 duser:64 -N 5 - arp
                           srcUdata                                          dstUdata
  s[38]="who-has 192.168.0.66 tell 192.168.0.68"        d[36]="192.168.0.68 is-at c8:2a:14:58:7a:55"                    
  s[37]="who-has 192.168.0.1 tell 192.168.0.68"         d[36]="192.168.0.68 is-at 80:71:1f:3c:c3:88"                    
  s[37]="who-has 192.168.0.1 tell 192.168.0.66"          d[0]=""                                                        
  s[37]="who-has 192.168.0.1 tell 192.168.0.78"          d[0]=""                                                        
  s[38]="who-has 192.168.0.34 tell 192.168.0.66"         d[0]=""

This example decodes the user capture buffers of DNS traffic seen in the file.
