NAME

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

SYNTAX

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

DESCRIPTION

       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.

OPTIONS

       -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.

EXAMPLES

       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
