NAME

       tracesplit - split traces

SYNOPSIS

       tracesplit  [  -f  bpf | --filter=bpf] [ -c count | --count=count] [ -b
       bytes | --bytes=bytes] [ -i seconds | --seconds=seconds] [ -s  unixtime
       |  --starttime=unixtime]  [  -e  unixtime  |  --endtime=unixtime]  [ -m
       maxfiles |  --maxfiles=maxfiles]  [  -S  snaplen  |  --snaplen=snaplen]
       inputuri outputuri ...

DESCRIPTION

       tracesplit splits one trace into multiple tracefiles

       -f bpf filter
              output only packets that match tcpdump style bpf filter

       -c count
              output  count  packets per output file.  The output file will be
              named after the basename given in the outputuri with the  packet
              number of the first packet in this file.

       -b bytes
              output bytes bytes per file

       -i seconds
              start a new tracefile after "seconds" seconds

       -s unixtime
              don’t output any packets before unixtime

       -e unixtime
              don’t output any packets after unixtime

       -m maxfiles
              do not create more than "maxfiles" trace files

       -S snaplen
              Truncate  packets  to  "snaplen"  bytes  long.   The  default is
              collect the entire packet.

EXAMPLES

       create a 1MB erf trace of port 80 traffic.
       tracesplit erf:/traces/bigtrace.gz -f ’port 80’ -b $[ 1024 * 1024 ]
       erf:/traces/port80.gz
