.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
.LP
|
|
|
|
|
\fBipmon\fP opens \fB/dev/ipl\fP for reading and awaits data to be saved from
|
|
|
|
|
the packet filter. The binary data read from the device is reprinted in
|
|
|
|
|
human readable for, however, IP#'s are not mapped back to hostnames, nor are
|
|
|
|
|
ports mapped back to service names. The output goes to standard output by
|
|
|
|
|
default or a filename, if given on the command line. Should the \fB\-s\fP
|
|
|
|
|
option be used, output is instead sent to \fBsyslogd(8)\fP. Messages sent
|
|
|
|
|
via syslog have the day, month and year removed from the message, but the
|
|
|
|
|
time (including microseconds), as recorded in the log, is still included.

.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
|
|
|
\fBipmon\fP expects data that it reads to be consistant with how it should be
|
|
|
|
|
saved and will abort if it fails an assertion which detects an anomoly in the
|
|
|
|
|
recorded data.
