Usage
Command Line Options: (cmdline)
---------------------
-? or -h this help screen
-c <filename> specify the configuration/rules filename
-d <directory> specify the directory for output files
-i <device> set the network device to listen on (default: 'any')
-g <gid> set a group identity
-u <uid> set a user identity
-r <pcapfile> pcap file to read (overrides -i)
-B "<bpf expression>" set a bpf expression (alternative to -F <filename>)
-D (daemon) prints msgs to syslog only - disables printing realtimes to stdout
-F <bpf filename> file containing a bpf filter expression, overrides (alternative to -B)
-H --human-readable write IP addresses in dotted notation and TCPflag fields in hex
-R Set default for realtime to 'pass' (default is 'log') disables realtime, but rules can override
-S Set default for stats to 'pass' (default is 'log') disables stats, but rules can override
-P Set default for pcap to 'pass' (default is 'log') disables pcap, but rules can override
-I or --enable_icmp_mixed record 'code' and 'type' fields for ICMP
to the fields 's_port' and 'd_port'.
note: affects how related icmp packets are correlated
-V display version
--strip-80211 strip 802.1Q headers from 802.1Q packets; used to
decode 802.1Q encapsulated packets - affects -A option,
--log-facility <facility> where facility can be 'LOCAL1' - 'LOCAL7'
The default log facility used by SANCP is LOG_DAEMON
# Debug mode for pcap data logging
-A records ALL traffic frames to a pcap file named 'debug_pcap_raw'
(despite rules). Packets are logged here prior to decoding or handling.
Use -F or -B option to restrict what is collectedi.
Pcap data logged using this option is affected by the --strip-80211 cmdline option
The configuration file equivalent to this is 'default debug_pcap_raw enable'
