UNIX IP address info.

[sybas...@hotmail.com]

Hi,

I have two HP-UX servers. I want to ping from box A to box B and be
able to see, from box B, what IP address box A is pinging from. So if
IP address of box A is 100.10.10.10 and it pings box B I want to be
able to see, from box B, that box A with the IP adress 100.10.10.10 is
trying to ping.

Is there any command that can do this? Thanks for your help.

With solaris you can run snoop, this checks what is being
sent across that particular interface.

Do a man on snoop - not sure if snoop is on hp-ux.

Does it have to be a ping packet? 'Cause if it doesn't, and you want "A"
to see the info, then you could set up a telnet port that just replies
with the incoming address and terminates.

Heck, you could even telnet in and ask "who am i", though that might
give you a hostname, not an IP. There's always netstat -an, too.

What precisely are you trying to accomplish?

Get libpcap && tcpdump from ftp.ee.lbl.gov. It will do what you want.

Look at the nettl man page this will allow you to network trace on a hp
box
To trace
nettl -st
nettl -tn pduin pduout -e all -f <tracefile>
nettl -sp

To format the trace
netfmt -Nlf <tracefile> > <formatted trace file>
