The net/icmpinfo port
icmpinfo-1.11 – look at the icmp messages received by the host
Description
ICMPINFO:
icmpinfo is a tool for looking at the icmp messages received on
the running host.
The source code comes from an heavily modified BSD ping source.
USAGE:
icmpinfo o Gives info about weird packets only [mainly icmp_unreachable].
icmpinfo -v o Gives info about all icmp packets [that includes your own
traceroutes...] except pings (icmp_echo_reply).
icmpinfo -vv o To see pings too.
icmpinfo -vvv o Will add an ascci/hexa dump of the packet.
icmpinfo -n o Avoids name queries (faster, lighter).
icmpinfo -p o Avoids port number to service name queries (faster, lighter).
icmpinfo -s o Also decode the ip_src field which is the address of the
interface receiving the packet. This option is not useful
for hosts with a single network interface.
icmpinfo -l o Run like a daemon (forks) and output to SYSLOG.
(It now checks that you are root for that)
