NAME
       tttprobe - Tele Traffic Tapper probe -  A probe to collect local traffic-data and send it to a remote instance of tttview

SYNTAX
       ttt [-interface device] [-interval ms] [-multicast] [-port dest_port] [-ttl time-to-live] [Destination]

DESCRIPTION
       tttprobe  is  the probe program in the ttt program suite. tttprobe locally collects traffic-data and sends it over a network to an instance
       of tttview.

       To run tttview, it is not necessary to be "root".

       The ttt program suite is yet another descendant of tcpdump but it is capable of real-time, graphical, local and remote  traffic-monitoring.
       It won't replace tcpdump, rather, it helps you find out what to look into with tcpdump.

OPTIONS
       ttt [-interface device] [-interval ms] [-multicast] [-port dest_port] [-ttl time-to-live] [Destination]

       -interface device
	      specifies the interface for packet capture. If not specified, the default interface is chosen.

       -interval ms
	      Sets the interval in Milliseconds. If omitted, a interval of 1000 msec. is used as default.

       -multicast
	      Shorthand for the default multicast destination "224.8.8.0".

       -port dest_port
	      Specifies the udp port number on the remote host where the traffic-data should be sent to. If omitted, port 7288 is used as default.

       -ttl time-to-live
	      Specifies the time-to-live for multicast. If omitted, 1 is used as default to restrict the multicast to the local subnet.

       Destination
	      Specifies  the  remote  host  where the traffic-data should be sent to. Destination can be omitted only, if -multicast is specified.
	      Destination can be a uni- or multicast address.

EXAMPLES
       Remark: "hostA" is allways the host where traffic-data is collected with tttprobe and "hostB" is allways the host where the traffic-data is
       displayed with tttview.

       point-to-point monitoring:

	      hostA: tttprobe hostB
	      hostB: tttview

	      or:

	      hostA: tttprobe ip_of_hostB
	      hostB: tttview

       multicast:

	      when using the default multicast address:

	      hostA: tttprobe -multicast
	      hostB: tttview -multicast

	      this is equivalent to:

	      hostA: tttprobe 224.8.8.0
	      hostB: tttview -addr 224.8.8.0
