NAME

       rvnamed - reverse name resolution daemon for iptraf(8)

DESCRIPTION

       rvnamed	is  a  supplementary  program  distributed  with  iptraf.   This  is a reverse name resolution daemon used by iptraf to resolve IP
       addresses to host names in the background, keeping iptraf from waiting until the lookup is completed.

       This program is only used by iptraf and, therefore, is useless alone.

NAME

       iptraf - Interactive Colorful IP LAN Monitor

SYNOPSIS

       iptraf { [ -f ] [ -q ] [ { -i iface | -g | -d iface | -s iface | -z iface | -l iface } [ -t timeout ] [ -B [ -L logfile ] ] ] | [ -h ] }

DESCRIPTION

       iptraf  is an ncurses-based IP LAN monitor that generates various network statistics including TCP info, UDP counts, ICMP and OSPF informa-
       tion, Ethernet load info, node stats, IP checksum errors, and others.

       If the command is issued without any command-line options, the program comes up in interactive mode, with the various  facilities  accessed
       through the main menu.

OPTIONS

       These options can also be supplied to the command:

       -i iface
	      immediately start the IP traffic monitor on the specified interface, or all interfaces if "-i all" is specified

       -g     immediately start the general interface statistics

       -d iface
	      allows you to immediately start the detailed on the indicated interface (iface)

       -s iface
	      allows you to immediately monitor TCP and UDP traffic on the specified interface (iface)

       -z iface
	      shows packet counts by size on the specified interface

       -l iface
	      start the LAN station monitor on the specified interface, or all LAN interfaces if "-l all" is specified

       -t timeout
	      tells IPTraf to run the specified facility for only timeout minutes.  This option is used only with one of the above parameters.

       -B     redirect	standard output to /dev/null, closes standard input, and forks the program into the background.  Can be used only with one
	      of the facility invocation parameters above.  Send the backgrounded process a USR2 signal to terminate.

       -L logfile
	      allows you to specify an alternate log file name.  The default log file name is based on either  the  interface  selected  (detailed
	      interface  statistics,  TCP/UDP service statistics, packet size breakdown), or the instance of the facility (IP traffic monitor, LAN
	      station monitor).  If a path is not specified, the log file is placed in /var/log/iptraf

       -f     clears all locks and counters, causing this instance of IPTraf to think it's the first one running.  This should	only  be  used	to
	      recover from an abnormal termination or system crash.

       -q     no longer needed, maintained only for compatibility.

       -h     shows a command summary

SIGNALS

	SIGUSR1 - rotates log files while program is running
	SIGUSR2 - terminates an IPTraf process running in the background.

FILES

	/var/log/iptraf/*.log - log file
	/var/local/iptraf/* - important IPTraf data files
