Overview
tcpdump2xplot takes the output of
tcpdump -tt -S ...
and plots it in terms of sequence-number versus time, with other info displayed (e.g., the TCP window, acks, etc.).
Options
-?, -help prints a help message. -c, ``cumulative'', adds all the data coming from a server. -list[filename] prints the list of generated plot files to filename. -plot[filename] plots the packets from filename. The filename may be built out of a hostname and port number, e.g.: abc.def.com:1234. The default is
fromhost:fromport-tohost:toport.xplot
where fromhost, fromport, thost, toport are extracted as conversations from the tcpdump data. -q means "quiet" --- no visible output. -r means use relative sequence numbers. -s means break up conversations on TCP syns. -t convert time to decimal number of seconds. -w plots the TCP window.
