NAME

       trafgen - a high-performance zero-copy network packet generator

SYNOPSIS

       trafgen	 [-d|--dev <netdev>][-c|--conf <file>][-J|--jumbo-support]	[-x|--interactive][-n|--num <uint>][-r|--rand][-t|--gap <usec>]
	    [-S|--ring-size <size>][-k|--kernel-pull <usec>][-b|--bind-cpu <cpu>]      [-B|--unbind-cpu
       <cpu>][-H|--prio-high][-Q|--notouch-irq][-v|--version]	   [-h|--help]

DESCRIPTION

       A high-performance network traffic generator that uses the zero-copy TX_RING for network I/O. For instance, on comodity Gigabit hardware up
       to 1,488,095 pps 64 Byte pps have been achieved with trafgen.

OPTIONS

       trafgen --dev eth0 --conf trafgen.txf --bind-cpu 0
	   Use packet configuration trafgen.txf, eth0 as transmission device and CPU0 for binding the process.

OPTIONS

       -h|--help
	   Print help text and lists all options.

       -v|--version
	   Print version.

       -d|--dev <netdev>
	   Device for transmission i.e., eth0.

       -c|--conf <conf>
	   Path to packet configuration file.

       -x|--interactive
	   Start trafgen in interactive mode.

       -J|--jumbo-support
	   Support for 64KB Super Jumbo Frames

       -n|--num <uint>
	   Number of packets to generate before exiting.  0 means forever until SIGINT.

       -r|--rand
	   Randomize packet selection process instead of round-robin.

       -t|--gap <uint>
	   Interpacket gap in microseconds.

       -S|--ring-size <size>
	   Manually set ring size to <size>: mmap space in KB/MB/GB.

       -k|--kernel-pull <uint>
	   Kernel pull from user interval in microseconds.  Default value is 10 microseconds.

       -b|--bind-cpu <cpu>
	   Bind to specific CPU (or CPU-range).

       -B|--unbind-cpu <cpu>
	   Forbid to use specific CPU (or CPU-range).

       -H|--prio-high
	   Make this high priority process.

       -Q|--notouch-irq
	   Do not touch IRQ CPU affinity of NIC.

EXAMPLES

       Generate traffic defined in trafgen.txf on eth0 using CPU 0
	   trafgen --dev eth0 --conf trafgen.txf --bind-cpu 0

       Generate traffic on eth0 using CPU 0, wait 100 us between packets
	   trafgen --dev eth0 --conf trafgen.txf --bind-cpu 0 --gap 100

       Generate 100,000 packet on eth0 using CPU 0
	   trafgen --dev eth0 --conf trafgen.txf --bind-cpu 0 --num 100000

NAME

       curvetun - lightweight curve25519-based multiuser IP tunnel

SYNOPSIS

       curvetun [-d|--dev <tun>][-x|--export][-C|--dumpc][-S|--dumps] [-k|--keygen][-c|--client [<alias>]][-s|--server][-N|--no-logging]
       [-p|--port <num>][-t|--stun <server>][-4|--ipv4][-6|--ipv6] [-v|--version][-h|--help]

DESCRIPTION

       curvetun embeds a client and a server to build and manage multiuser IP tunnels using Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC)

EXAMPLES

       curvetun --keygen
	   Generate public/private keypair. This needs to be done before to get things started.

       curvetun --export
	   Export public data to remote servers

       curvetun --server -4 -u -N --port 6666 --stun stunserver.org
	   Start a UDP IPv4 curvetun server on port 6666.  Use stunserver.org as STUN server.

       curvetun --client=ethz
	   Start curvetun client using the profile called 'ethz'

OPTIONS

       -k|--keygen
	   Generate public/private keypair.

       -x|--export
	   Export your public data for remote servers.

       -C|--dumpc
	   Dump parsed clients.

       -S|--dumps
	   Dump parsed servers.

       -D|--nofork
	   Do not daemonize.

       -d|--dev <tun>
	   Networking tunnel device, e.g. tun0.

       -c|--client [<alias>]
	   Client mode, server alias optional.

       -s|--server
	   Server mode.

       -N|--no-logging
	   Disable server logging (for better anonymity).

       -p|--port <num>
	   Port number (mandatory).

       -t|--stun <server>
	   Show public IP/Port mapping via STUN.

       -u|--udp
	   Use UDP as carrier instead of TCP.

       -4|--ipv4
	   Tunnel devices are IPv4.

       -6|--ipv6
	   Tunnel devices are IPv6.

       -v|--version
	   Print version.

       -h|--help
	   Print help text and lists all options.
