5ovs\-tcpundump \- convert ``tcpdump \-xx'' output to hex strings

11.SH DESCRIPTION
12The \fBovs\-tcpundump\fR program reads \fBtcpdump \-xx\fR output on
13stdin, looking for hexadecimal packet data, and dumps each Ethernet as
14a single hexadecimal string on stdout. This format is suitable for
15use with the \fBofproto/trace\fR command supported by
045b2e5c 16\fBovs\-vswitchd\fR(8)
2ba7924f 17via \fBovs\-appctl\fR(8).

18.PP
19At least two \fB\-x\fR or \fB\-X\fR options must be given, otherwise
20the output will omit the Ethernet header, which prevents the output
21from being using with \fBofproto/trace\fR.
