NAME


bittwiste -- pcap capture file editor

SYNOPSIS


bittwiste [ -I input ] [ -O output ] [ -L layer ] [ -X payload ]
[ -C ] [ -M linktype ] [ -D offset ] [ -R range ]
[ -S timeframe ] [ -T header ]
[ header-specific-options ] [ -h ]

DESCRIPTION


This document describes the bittwiste program, the pcap(3) capture file editor. Bittwiste
is designed to work only with Ethernet frame, e.g. link type DLT_EN10MB in pcap(3), with a
maximum frame size of 1514 bytes which is equivalent to a MTU of 1500 bytes, 14 bytes for
Ethernet header.

Bittwiste can currently edit Ethernet, ARP, IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP headers. If run with
the -X flag, you can append your own payload after any of these headers; specified using
the -L and -T flag. Bittwiste will, if not run with the -C flag, recalculate the checksums
for IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP packets, except for the last fragment of a fragmented IP
datagram; bittwiste does not currently support checksum correction for the last fragment
of a fragmented IP datagram. While parsing the packets in a trace file, bittwiste will
skip, i.e. write to output file as is, any truncated packet, for example, an ICMP packet
with a captured length of 25 bytes (we need at least 28 bytes; 14 bytes for Ethernet
header, minimum 20 bytes for IP header, and 4 bytes for ICMP header) does not give enough
information on its ICMP header for bittwiste to read and modify it. In this case, you can
utilize the -L and -T flag to copy the original packet up to its IP header and append your
customized ICMP header and data to the packet using the -X flag. When specifying payload
that covers the ICMP, TCP or UDP header and its data, you can use zeros, e.g. 0000 for 2
bytes of zeros, for the header checksum which is then corrected automatically by
bittwiste.

In order to simplify the way options are specified, you can only edit packets of a
specific type supplied to the -T flag per execution of bittwiste on a trace file. In
addition, the -T flag must appear last among the general options which are the -I, -O, -L,
-X, -C, -M, -D, -R and -S flag.

OPTIONS


-I input
Input pcap based trace file.

-O output
Output trace file.

-L layer
Copy up to the specified layer and discard the remaining data. Value for layer must
be either 2, 3 or 4 where 2 for Ethernet, 3 for ARP or IP, and 4 for ICMP, TCP or
UDP.

-X payload
Append payload in hex digits to the end of each packet.
Example: -X 0302aad1
-X flag is ignored if -L and -T flag are not specified.

-C Specify this flag to disable checksum correction. Checksum correction is applicable
for non-fragmented IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP packets only.

-M linktype
Replace the linktype stored in the pcap file header. Typically, value for linktype
is 1 for Ethernet.
Example: -M 12 (for raw IP), -M 51 (for PPPoE)

For the complete list, see:
http://www.tcpdump.org/linktypes.html

-D offset
Delete the specified byte offset from each packet.
First byte (starting from link layer header) starts from 1.
-L, -X, -C and -T flag are ignored if -D flag is specified.
Example: -D 15-40, -D 10 or -D 18-9999

-R range
Save only the specified range of packets.
Example: -R 5-21 or -R 9

-S timeframe
Save only the packets within the specified timeframe with up to one-second
resolution using DD/MM/YYYY,HH:MM:SS as the format for start and end time in
timeframe.
Example: -S 22/10/2006,21:47:35-24/10/2006,13:16:05
-S flag is evaluated after -R flag.

-T header
Edit only the specified header. Possible keywords for header are, eth, arp, ip,
icmp, tcp, or udp. -T flag must appear last among the general options.

-h Print version information and usage.

header-specific-options
Each packet that matches the type supplied to the -T flag is modified based on the
options described below:

Options for eth (RFC 894):
