TCPKILL(8) System Manager's Manual TCPKILL(8)

NAME

tcpkill - kill TCP connections on a LAN

SYNOPSIS



tcpkill [-i interface] [-1...9]
    expression






DESCRIPTION




tcpkill kills specified in-progress TCP connections (useful
    for libnids-based applications which require a full TCP 3-whs for TCB
    creation).






OPTIONS



  

  
Specify the interface to listen on.

  
-1...9

  
Specify the degree of brute force to use in killing a connection. Fast
      connections may require a higher number in order to land a RST in the
      moving receive window. Default is 3.

  

  
Specify a tcpdump(8) filter expression to select the connections to
    kill.
