EOExplain; detail = <<- EODetail The basic operation of tcpreplay is to resend all packets from the input file(s) at the speed at which they were recorded, or a specified data rate, up to as fast as the hardware is capable. Optionally, the traffic can be split between two interfaces, written to files, filtered and edited in various ways, providing the means to test firewalls, NIDS and other network devices. For more details, please see the Tcpreplay Manual at: http://tcpreplay.synfin.net/trac/wiki/manual EODetail; man-doc = <<- EOMan .SH "SIGNALS" tcpreplay understands the following signals: @enumerate @item @var{SIGUSR1} Suspend tcpreplay @item @var{SIGCONT} Restart tcpreplay @end enumerate .SH "SEE ALSO" tcpreplay-edit(1), tcpdump(1), tcpprep(1), tcprewrite(1), libnet(3) .SH "BUGS" tcpreplay can only send packets as fast as your computer's interface, processor, disk and system bus will allow. Packet timing at high speeds is a black art and very OS/CPU dependent. Replaying captured traffic may simulate odd or broken conditions on your network and cause all sorts of problems. In most cases, you can not replay traffic back to/at a server. Some operating systems by default do not allow for forging source MAC addresses. Please consult your operating system's documentation and the tcpreplay FAQ if you experience this issue.
