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

   7 .SH SYNOPSIS
   8 \fBovs\-tcpundump < \fIfile\fR
   9 .so lib/common-syn.man
  10 .
  11 .SH DESCRIPTION
  12 The \fBovs\-tcpundump\fR program reads \fBtcpdump \-xx\fR output on
  13 stdin, looking for hexadecimal packet data, and dumps each Ethernet as
  14 a single hexadecimal string on stdout.  This format is suitable for
  15 use with the \fBofproto/trace\fR command supported by
  16 \fBovs\-vswitchd\fR(8)
  17 via \fBovs\-appctl\fR(8).
  18 .PP
  19 At least two \fB\-x\fR or \fB\-X\fR options must be given, otherwise
  20 the output will omit the Ethernet header, which prevents the output
  21 from being using with \fBofproto/trace\fR.
