SYNOPSIS

       ramon [ra-options] -M (TopN | Matrix | HostProto | HostSvc | Svc) [-M Net/masklen] [ expression ]

DESCRIPTION

       Ramon  reads  argus(8)  data  from an argus data source, aggregates the records, sorts them based on user
       supplied criteria  and generates modified argus data that supports RMON2 style tables and data reporting.

       Ramon supports the same sorting capabilites and calling syntax as rasort()  for  specifying  the  sorting
       algorithm and order.

       The output is valid argus data, and can be operated on using any ra*() program.

       Like  all  ra based clients, ramon supports a large number of options, configuration through .rarc files,
       and input filtering using the terminating filter expression.

       See the ra(1) man page for details on ra-options and expression syntax.

RAMON SPECIFIC OPTIONS

       -M TopN
            Generate the top N list of network addresses and supply the incoming and outgoing packet  and  bytes
            counts.  The addresses can be modified using the -M Net mode in addition to this mode.

       -M Matrix
            Generate the list of talkers ( A <-> B) and supply the incoming and outgoing packet and byte counts.
            The talker addresses can be modified using the -M Net mode.

       -M HostProto
            Generate the list of protocols that are being used by each  address  and  supply  the  incoming  and
            outgoing packet and byte counts seen.

       -M HostSvc
            Generate  the  list  of  services  that  are  being used by each address and supply the incoming and
            outgoing packet and byte counts seen.

       -M Svc
            Generate the list of services (dst port number) and supply the incoming and outgoing packet and byte
            counts seen.

       -M Net[/masklen]
            Track  addresses as networks rather than host addresses.  If the option masklen is not provided, the
            addresses are traced as subnets based on their Class network address.

       -a   Don't filter output to match expression filter.  This generates the complete set  of  addresses/nets
            that contributed to the inbound and outbound metrics.
