SC_WARTS2PCAP(1)	  BSD General Commands Manual	      SC_WARTS2PCAP(1)

NAME
     sc_warts2pcap — write packets included in warts object to a pcap file.

SYNOPSIS
     sc_warts2pcap [-o outfile] [-s sort] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
     The sc_warts2pcap utility provides the ability to extract packets embed‐
     ded in the tbit, sting, and sniff warts objects and write them to a pcap
     file, which can be read by tcpdump and wireshark.	The options are as
     follows:

     -o outfile
	     specifies the name of the output file.  If no output file is
	     specified, it will be written to the standard output, provided
	     that it is not a tty.

     -o sort
	     specifies how the pcap records (packets) are sorted before being
	     written out.  By default, no sorting is applied; the packets are
	     grouped as they are in the warts file.  If packet sorting is
	     specified, the packets are written out in timestamp order.	 Note
	     that this operation requires the packets to be read into memory
	     to be sorted, so it will require a corresponding amount of memory
	     to complete.

EXAMPLES
     The command:

	sc_warts2pcap -o output.pcap file1.warts file2.warts

     will read the packet objects from file1.warts, and then file2.warts, and
     write them to output.pcap.

     The command:

	gzcat file1.warts.gz | sc_warts2pcap -s packet >file1.pcap

     will read the contents of the uncompressed warts file supplied on stdin,
     sort the packets by their timestamp, and then write the output to
     file1.pcap.
