In linux there is a product called usernet. In HP you could use glance plus

I don??t want statistics I want debug to know what packets is in the card on hpux like Network monitor.
Can use the nettl?.
Thanks

Do you mean you want to see the number of outbound/inbound packets?

netstat will give you that, e.g. :

netstat -iI lan0 2

reports the number of packets in and out of lan0 every 2 seconds.

If you mean you actually want to look at the contents of the packets then:

1. Have a look at the network tracing and logging facility ('man nettl' or 'man nettladm' for info)

2. Get a packet sniffer like ethereal available for free here:

ethreal is a sniffer.

nettl is a sniffer that comes with the system.

IDS/9000 sort of performs this task as well.

ethereal

http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Gtk/Applications/ethereal-0.9.12/

is an excellent tool for packet sniffing. Fully GUI, good packet decoding capabilities, split window presentation, and easy to filter both pre and post capture.

The downside is that you have a large list of prerequisite packages to install:

expat gettext glib gtk+ libiconv libpcap zlib


All are available from the same porting site, above.

tcpdump

http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Networking/Admin/tcpdump-3.7.2/

works in a similar fashion, but is command-line based (no GUI or TUI). It only requires the libpcap package.
