NAME

       ipsetdot - utility of libcorkipset library

SYNOPSIS

       ipsetdot [options] <input filename>

DESCRIPTION

       Creates a GraphViz file showing the BDD structure of an IP set.

OPTIONS

              <input filename>

       The binary set file to read.
              To read from stdin, use "-" as the

              filename.

       --output=<filename>, -o <filename>

              Writes  the GraphViz representation of the binary IP set file to <filename>.  If this option isn't
              given, then the contents will be written to standard output.

       --verbose, -v

       Show progress information about the files being read and written.
              If

              this option is not given, the only output will be any error messages that occur.

       --help

              Display this help and exit.

   Output format:
              Internally, IP sets are represented by a binary-decision diagram (BDD).  The ipsetdot program  can
              be  used  to produce a GraphViz file that describes the internal BDD structure for an IP set.  The
              GraphViz representation can then be passed in  to  GraphViz's  "dot"  program,  for  instance,  to
              generate an image of the BDD's graph structure.
