Analyze Network Traffic

[Ralf Buchhold]

Hello
is it possible to analyze the network traffic (hexdump and so on) (HPUX 11.11) like "ethereal" under linux ?

Thanks
Ralf

lookup nettl
This can give u basic tracing ability.

There is also "tcpdump" you can use.
Can be downloaded from here:
http://www.tcpdump.org/

Try using tcpdump.

If host_IP is your Oracle server IP address and oracle_port is the port used for listener (generally 1521), use the following :
tcpdump -n -nn -X host host_IP and port oracle_port > tcpdump.log 2>&1
After some time, break and edit tcpdump.log. It will contain packets HEX and ASCII dumps.

Regards,

Fred

Hi Ralf,
ethereal is also available for HP-UX:

nettl is already on the system.

tcpdump and ethereal can be installed from the HP Internet Express bundle available from software.hp.com.

or, the latest bits for tcpdump can be had from http://www.tcpdump.org/ - 99 times out of 10 they should compile out of the tarfile - at least with the HP-UX compilers.
