NAME

       rastrip - strip argus(8) data file.

SYNOPSIS

       rastrip [-M [replace] [+|-]dsr [-M ...]]  [raoptions] [-- filter-expression]

DESCRIPTION

       Rastrip  reads  argus  data  from  an  argus-data  source, strips the records based on the
       criteria specified on the command line, and outputs a valid argus-stream. This  is  useful
       to  reduce  the  size  of  argus  data  files.   Rastrip  always  removes argus management
       transactions, thus having the same effect as a 'not man' filter expression.

OPTIONS

       Rastrip, 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.  rastrip(1) specific options are:

       -M [+|-]dsr
           Strip specified dsr (data set record).

           Supported dsrs are:
              flow   flow key data (proto, saddr, sport, dir, daddr, dport)
              time   time stamp fields (stime, ltime).
              metric basic ([s|d]bytes, [s|d]pkts, [s|d]rate, [s|d]load)
              agr    aggregation stats (trans, avgdur, mindur, maxdur, stdev).
              net    network objects (tcp, esp, rtp, icmp data).
              vlan   VLAN tag data
              mpls   MPLS label data
              jitter Jitter data ([s|d]jit, [s|d]intpkt)
              ipattr IP attributes ([s|d]ipid, [s|d]tos, [s|d]dsb, [s|d]ttl)
              suser  src user captured data bytes (suser)
              duser  dst captured user data bytes (duser)
              mac    MAC addresses (smac, dmac)
              icmp   ICMP specific data (icmpmap, inode)
              encaps Flow encapsulation type indications

       In the default mode, without the -M option, rastrip removes the following default  set  of
       dsrs: encaps, agr, vlan, mpls, mac, icmp, ipattr, jitter, suser, duser

       -M replace
           Replace the existing file with the newly striped file.

INVOCATION

       A  sample  invocation  of  rastrip(1).   This  call reads argus(8) data from inputfile and
       strips the default dsr set but keeps MAC addresses and writes the result to outputfile:

       rastrip -M +mac -r inputfile -w outputfile

       This call removes only captured user data and timings and writes the result to stdout:

       rastrip -M -suser -M -duser -M -time -r inputfile
