tttview: Tele Traffic Tapper viewer- a viewer program for remote, real-time, graphical traffic-monitoring.

tttview [-addr recv_addr] [-mcastifaddr addr] [-multicast] [-port recv_port] [-probe addr] [-yscale (K|M|n)]

tttview is the viewer program in the ttt program suite. tttview displays traffic-data collected on a remote host by tttprobe.

To run tttview, it is not necessary to be "root".

The ttt program suite is yet another descendant of tcpdump but it is capable of real-time, graphical, local and remote traffic-monitoring. It won't replace tcpdump, rather, it helps you find out what to look into with tcpdump.

-addr recv_addr

Specifies the local address. Only useful for multicast addresses. If omitted, "224.8.8.0 is used as default.

-mcastifaddr addr

Specifies the multicast interface address. Only useful when an interface is selected to join a multicast group.

-multicast

Shorthand for the default multicast destination "224.8.8.0".

-port recv_port

Specifies the udp port number to receive traffic-data from a remote tttprobe. If omitted, port 7288 is used as default.

-probe addr

Specifies the address of a probe. Only useful to select one among multiple probes.

-yscale ('K'|'M'|n)

change the scale of y-axis. 'K' and 'M' represent 1000 and 1000000 respectively.

Remark: "hostA" is allways the host where traffic-data is collected with tttprobe and "hostB" is allways the host where the traffic-data is displayed with tttview.

point-to-point monitoring:

hostA: tttprobe hostB

hostB: tttview

or:

hostA: tttprobe ip_of_hostB

hostB: tttview

multicast:

when using the default multicast address:

hostA: tttprobe -multicast

hostB: tttview -multicast

this is equivalent to:

hostA: tttprobe 224.8.8.0

hostB: tttview -addr 224.8.8.0
