PLOGICMP(8)

NAME
plogicmp - ICMP packet logger.

SYNOPSIS
plogicmp [-q] [-lwr] [-i hostname[/mask]]

DESCRIPTION
plogicmp is a daemon that logs all ICMP packets that your host receives.

  OPTIONS

-q  Quiet mode. Do not send output to stdout. Only error messages are printed.

-l  Make a simple human readeable log.

-w  Log raw data, exactly as it was read from the socket, prefixing to each packet, sizeof( time_t) bytes containing the date when the packet arrived. You can later interpret this data, obtaining a detailed report of the packet data using the program ipretplog.

-r  Resolve domain names. By default the program won't resolve IP addresses to domain names because of the slow down it produces.

-i hostname[/mask]
    Ignore packets. hostname can be a hostname, a network name, or an IP address. The mask can be a network mask or a number that specify the number of ones at the left side of the network mask. So, a mask of 16 is the same that 255.255.0.0. You can also use this option more than once, to ignore logging packets from hosts that belong to different networks.
