Опции:
-i iface immediately start the IP traffic monitor on the specified interface, or all interfaces if "-i all" is specified
-g immediately start the general interface statistics
-d iface allows you to immediately start the detailed on the indicated interface (iface)
-s iface allows you to immediately monitor TCP and UDP traffic on the specified interface (iface)
-z iface shows packet counts by size on the specified interface
-l iface start the LAN station monitor on the specified interface, or all LAN interfaces if "-l all" is specified
-t timeout tells IPTraf to run the specified facility for only timeout minutes. This option is used only with one of the above parameters.
-B redirect standard output to /dev/null, closes standard input, and forks the program into the background. Can be used only with one of the facility invocation parameters above. Send the backgrounded process a USR2 signal to terminate.
-L logfile allows you to specify an alternate log file name. The default log file name is based on either the interface selected (detailed interface statistics, TCP/UDP service statistics, packet size breakdown), or the instance of the facility (IP traffic monitor, LAN station monitor). If a path is not specified, the log file is placed in /var/log/iptraf
-f clears all locks and counters, causing this instance of IPTraf to think it's the first one running. This should only be used to recover from an abnormal termination or crash.
-q no longer needed, maintained only for compatibility.
-h shows a command summary
