You should use one host with two interfaces to run tcpreplay- there's no way to synchronize tcpreplay running on two different hosts. tcpreplay is built for speed which is why you need to do the added step of creating a cache file with tcpprep- it makes tcpreplay run MUCH faster when using two interfaces. If you're concerned with performance, be sure to read the documentation about tuning for high performance. Also, read up on the --enable-file-cache option. -- Aaron Turner http://synfin.net/ http://tcpreplay.synfin.net/ - Pcap editing & replay tools for Unix They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. -- Benjamin Franklin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
