lanmap8

A program that passively listens for any activity on your network connection, and creates an image of the network components it managed to discover

Usage

lanmap [-o directory] [-e program] [-T png,gif,svg] [-f filter] [-D #,all,raw] [-r seconds] [-i ?,*wildcard*,iface] [-h] [-v] [-V]

Overview

This manual page documents briefly the lanmap command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

lanmap listens on one network interface and produces an image of what it sees.

Traffic filter, in libpcap syntax.

Set the time interval between 2 consecutive graph generations. Default is 60 seconds.

-i {?,*wildcard*,iface}

Interface to use: "all" for all ?: list all devices and exit *3Com*: use the first NIC with "3Com" in it

Version info.
