RADUMP(1) General Commands Manual RADUMP(1)

radump - tcpdump processing of the user data buffers from an argus(8) data file/stream.

radump -r argus-file [raoptions] [-- filter-expression]

Radump reads argus data from an argus data stream or file, and prints out tcpdump style decoding of the user data buffers.

Radump, like all ra based clients, supports a number of ra options including filtering of input argus records through a terminating filter expression. See ra(1) for a complete description of ra options.

This example dumps the user capture buffers of arp traffic seen in the file. When there is no user buffer, or if the decoder can;t decode it, the length will 0.

% radump -r argus.file -s suser:64 duser:64 -N 5 - arp

  s[37]="who-has 192.168.0.1 tell 192.168.0.78"          d[0]=""                                                        
  s[38]="who-has 192.168.0.34 tell 192.168.0.66"         d[0]="" 

This example decodes the user capture buffers of DNS traffic seen in the file.
