NAME

       flowgrindd - advanced TCP traffic generator for Linux, FreeBSD, and Mac OS X

SYNOPSIS

       flowgrindd [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       flowgrindd  is  the  daemon for the advanced TCP traffic generator flowgrind(1). Using the
       flowgrind(1) controller, distributed network performance measurement tests can be  set  up
       between an arbitrary number of hosts running flowgrindd, the flowgrind daemon.

OPTIONS

       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.

       -b ADDR
              XML-RPC   server   bind   address.   An   easy  way  to  enable  support  for  IPv6
              control-connections is to specify the IPv6 wildcard address "::"

       -c #   bound daemon to specific CPU. First CPU is 0

       -d     don't fork into background, increase debugging verbosity. Add option multiple times
              to increase the verbosity

       -h, --help
              display this help and exit

       -p #   XML-RPC server port

       -w DIR target directory for dump files. Requires compiling flowgrind with libpcap support.
              The daemon must be run as root

       -v, --version
              print version information and exit

AUTHORS

       Flowgrind  was  original  started  by  Daniel  Schaffrath.  The  distributed   measurement
       architecture  and  advanced  traffic  generation  were  later  on  added  by Tim Kosse and
       Christian Samsel. Currently, flowgrind is developed  and  maintained  Arnd  Hannemann  and
       Alexander Zimmermann.
