NAME
       ipcad --	IP accounting daemon with Cisco-like ip	accounting export

SYNOPSIS
       ipcad [-h] [-c config] [-d] [-r]	[-s]

DESCRIPTION
       IPCAD  stands for IP Cisco Accounting Daemon. It	runs in	background and
       listens traffic on the specified	interfaces. Collected  statistics  can
       be obtained via the same	method used to gather ip accounting from Cisco
       routers.

OPTIONS
       The options are as follows:

       -h	   Print the help page

       -c config   Specify configuration file

       -d	   Work	in background

       -r	   Import saved	accounting table on startup

       -s	   Save	the active accounting table on exit

RSH COMMANDS
       Once  started,  ipcad  listens for rsh requests and/or exports NetFlow.
       In case of rsh, data can	be requested from ipcad	by issuing  a  follow-
       ing:

       rsh localhost command

       Commands	may be freely abbreviated.

   Recognized commands are:
       help				  Show available commands

       show ip accounting		  Show current accounting table
       show ip accounting checkpoint	  Show checkpointed accounting table

       clear ip	accounting		  Move accounting to checkpoint	base
       clear ip	accounting checkpoint	  Clear	checkpoint base

       show interface <ifname>		  Show interface status	and counters

       stat				  Show	overall	 interface  status and
					  statistics

       restore [<pathname>]		  Restore current table
       import [<pathname>]		  Import (add) entries from  specified
					  file

       shutdown				  Shutdown ipcad

EXAMPLE
       Run ipcad as daemon, import saved state tables on startup and save them
       on exit:

	     ipcad -rds

       Save  statistics:  the following	commands will save statistics for fur-
       ther processing.	No data	loss will occur	in this	case.

	     rsh localhost cle ip acco
	     rsh localhost sh ip acco checkpoint > file_to_parse
