# pcapmirror
|
|
|
|
pcapmirror is a command-line tool for capturing network traffic and mirroring it to a remote destination using TZSP encapsulation. It leverages the `libpcap` library for packet capture and provides options for filtering traffic based on BPF syntax. This tool is useful for network monitoring, intrusion detection, and remote packet analysis.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pcapmirror [options]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Options:
|
|
|
|
* -i <interface>: Specify the capture interface (e.g., eth0).
|
|
* -f <filter>: Specify the capture filter in BPF syntax (e.g., tcp port 80).
|
|
* -r <ip_address>: Specify the destination IP address (required).
|
|
* -p <port>: Specify the destination port (default: 37008).
|
|
* -v: Enable verbose mode (prints packet information).
|
|
* -h: Show this help message.
|
|
|
|
### Example:
|
|
|
|
To capture traffic on the eth0 interface, filter for TCP port 80, and send it to the destination, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo pcapmirror -i eth0 -f "tcp port 80" -r 192.168.1.100 -p 47008 -v
|
|
```
|
|
*Note*: Running pcapmirror typically requires root privileges due to the use of libpcap for capturing network traffic.

## Compile and Install
|
|
|
|
Compile the program:
|
|
```bash
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Install the program:
|
|
```bash
|
|
make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will copy the pcapmirror executable to bin. You may need to adjust the PREFIX variable in the Makefile if you want to install it to a different location.

sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On Fedora/CentOS/RHEL systems, you can install it using:
