NAME
       irdadump - monitors the IrDA traffic on one or more links.

SYNOPSIS
       irdadump [ -b ] [ -c n ] [ -d ] [ -x ] [ -s n ] [ -t ] [ -l ] [ -v ] [ -i device ]


OPTIONS
       -b dump bytes in columns

       -c n set snapcols for byte printing with -b option

       -d prints the time difference between the current and the previous frame

       -x dump frame (bytes and ascii)

       -s n set snaplen for -b and -x option

       -t force TTP decoding of unknown connections

       -l set line buffering on output file

       -v verbose

       -i device interface

DESCRIPTION
       irdadump is a tool for monitoring the IrDA traffic on one or more links. Just write
       "make" to compile the program. When you run the program, you should be able to  see
       the IrDA traffic (if any).

       One advantage of implementing IrDA device drivers as network device drivers is that
       you should be able to attach sniffers to the device (or actually the packet  type).
       That  way, it is possible to use a really handy utility called irdadump (instead of
       tcpdump). This will make  debugging  MUCH  easier.  Linux-2.2  implements  the  BPF
       (Berkeley Packet Filter), so its possible to filter out exactly the frames you want
       to see.  You may use hostname to separate different machines  names.   Or  grep  to
       filter the output, too.

       irdadump  must  be run as root or installed setuid root, as it requires root privi-
       leges.

EXAMPLES
       The output should look something like this:

       / # ./irdadump
       20:11:45.412199 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=0
       20:11:45.492137 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=1
       20:11:45.572137 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=2
       20:11:45.652208 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=3
       20:11:45.732137 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=4
       20:11:45.812137 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=5
       20:11:45.892175 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=255 Linux
       20:11:45.902362 xid:rsp 0xf7be8388 < 0x0015c23b S=6 s=5 ACTiSYS IR100M
       20:11:48.412197 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=0
       20:11:48.492656 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=1
       20:11:48.572177 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=2
       20:11:48.652169 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=3
       20:11:48.732177 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=4
       20:11:48.812153 xid:cmd 0x0015c23b > 0xffffffff S=6 s=5
       20:11:48.822371 xid:rsp 0xf7be8388 < 0x0015c23b S=6 s=4 ACTiSYS IR100M

       15 packets received by filter
       Turning on the "-d" option will make irdadump print the time difference between the
       current and the previous frame:

       irdadump  must  be run as root or installed setuid root, as it requires root privi-
       leges.

       irdadump -d -x -s 256 will check the contents of the frames. This should tell us if
       the frames have malformed content, or if the irda stack is doing something wrong.
