SYNOPSIS

       tracestats [ -f | --filter bpf ]... inputuri...

DESCRPTION

       tracestats  reads  one  or  more  traces  and  outputs summaries for each trace of how many packets/bytes match each bpf filter, as well as
       totals.	If instead of doing this for the entire trace, but to do it for portions then use tracertstats(1) instead.

	      Add another bpf filter

EXAMPLES

       tracestats --filter 'host sundown' 
	    --filter 'port http' 
	    --filter 'port ftp or ftp-data' 
	    --filter 'port smtp' 
	    --filter 'tcp[tcpflags] & tcp-syn!=0' 
	    --filter 'not ip' 
	    --filter 'ether[0] & 1 == 1' 
	    --filter 'icmp[icmptype] == icmp-unreach'
