NAME
tcpnice
-
slow down TCP connections on a LAN
SYNOPSIS
tcpnice [-v] [-I] [-i interface] [-n increment] [expression]
DESCRIPTION
tcpnice slows down specified in-progress TCP connections on a
LAN via "active" traffic shaping (useful for sniffing fast networks).
OPTIONS
- -v
-
Verbose mode.
- -I
-
Forge ICMP source quench replies in addition to tiny TCP window
advertisements.
- -i interface
-
Specify the interface to listen on.
- -n increment
-
Specify an amount by which to "nice" the connection. The imposed
latency can be adjusted over a range of 1 (normal speed) to 20 (the
slowest).
- expression
-
Specify a tcpdump(8) filter expression to select the connections to
slow down. If no expression is given, all TCP traffic on the LAN will
be artificially delayed.
