Description
Racount reads argus data from an argus-file list, and prints out various counts from the data in the
file. Racount supports, by default, a single line output that provide total records and pkt and byte
counts, broken down by source and destination.
Example Invocation
This example runs racount against a single argus data file, generating the default output.
% racount -r argus.2012.02.13.17.20.00.out.gz
racount records total_pkts src_pkts dst_pkts total_bytes src_bytes dst_bytes
sum 336 21319 9266 12053 16954495 1329172 15625323
This example runs racount against a directory containing argus data, generating a protocol breakdown as
well as generating a network address summary.
% racount -M proto addr -r argus.2012.02.13.17.20.00.out.gz
racount records total_pkts src_pkts dst_pkts total_bytes src_bytes dst_bytes
sum 336 21319 9266 12053 16954495 1329172 15625323

Name
racount - count things from an argus(8) data file/stream.
Options
Racount, like all ra based clients, supports a number of raoptions including filtering of input argus
records through a terminating filter expression. See ra(1) for a complete description of raoptions.
racount specfic options are:
-Mmodes
Supported modes are:
proto Print a count breakdown on protocols seen. racount will report on IP protocols, ether
protocols, arp, rarp and unknowwn.
addr Print a summary report of the occurence of the various types of network addresses
encountered. The current list of IANA standard network address types include:
IPv4 Unicast ThisNet, Reserved, LoopBack, LinkLocal, TestNet and Private
IPv4 Multicast Local, Internet, AdHoc, Reserved, SdpSap, Nasdaq, DisTrans, SrcSpec,
Glop, Admin, OrgLocal and SiteLocal
IPv6 Loopback, LinkLocal, SiteLocal, Global, V4Compat, V4Mapped and Unspecified
IPv6 MulticastNodeLocal, MulticastLinkLocal, MulticastSiteLocal, MulticastOrgLocal and
MulticastGlobal
