SC_ATTACH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 					      SC_ATTACH(1)

NAME
sc_attach -- simple scamper driver. SYNOPSIS
sc_attach [-?v] [-i infile] [-o outfile] [-p port] DESCRIPTION
The sc_attach utility provides the ability to connect to a running scamper(1) instance, have a set of commands defined in a file be executed, and the output be written into a single file, in warts format. The options are as follows: -? prints a list of command line options and a synopsis of each. -i infile specifies the name of the input file which consists of a sequence of scamper(1) commands, one per line. If '-' is specified, com- mands are read from stdin. -o outfile specifies the name of the output file to be written. The output file will use the warts format. If '-' is specified, output will be sent to stdout. -p port specifies the port on the local host where scamper(1) is accepting control socket connections. -v prints the current revision of sc_attach and exits. EXAMPLE
Given a set of commands in a file named infile.txt: tbit -M 1280 -u 'http://www.example.com/' 2620:0:2d0:200::10 trace -P udp-paris -M 192.0.2.1 ping -P icmp-echo 192.0.32.10 and a scamper(1) daemon listening on port 31337, then these commands can be executed using sc_attach -i infile.txt -o outfile.warts -p 31337 SEE ALSO
