NAME
sonar - display a sonar scope
SYNOPSIS
sonar [-ping hosts-or-subnets] [-background color]
[-sweep-color color] [-low-color color] [-scope-color color]
[-grid-color color] [-text-color color] [-ttl integer]
[-font font] [-ping-timeout int] [-team-a-name string]
[-team-b-name string] [-team-a-count int] [-team-b-count
int] [-debug]
DESCRIPTION
The sonar program displays a sonar scope on the computer's
screen. This scope polls a sensor as the sweep goes around
the scope and displays what it finds as bogies on the
screen. The program is designed to support different modes
representing different types of sensors. Currently the only
implemented sensors are a simulator, and a network ping
function that pings hosts and plots the results on the
scope.
OPTIONS
sonar understands the following options:
-background Color
The background Color of the screen not covered by
the scope.
-sweep-color Color
The color of the brightest part of the sweep.
-scope-color Color
The color of the circular part of the scope.
-grid-color Color
The color to the grid lines overlaying the scope.
-text-color Color
The color of the text identifying bogies on the
scope.
-ttl integer
"Time to live": visible time of a Bogie. Try values
between 10 (very short) and 100.
-font font
The font used to display text on the scope. Default
"fixed".
-ping-timeout int
The amount of time in milliseconds the program will
wait for an answer to a ping.
-ping hosts-or-subnets
The list of things to ping, separated by commas or
spaces. Elements of this list may be:
simulation to run in simulation mode, instead of
pinging real hosts (this is the default
if the program is not installed setuid);
hostname to ping the given host;
A.B.C.D to ping the given IP address;
subnet to ping the local class C subnet (the
nearest 255 addresses);
subnet/NN to ping a different-sized local subnet:
e.g., subnet/28 would ping a 4-bit sub-
net (the nearest 15 addresses);
A.B.C.D/NN to ping an arbitrary other subnet: the
IP address specifies the base address,
and the part after the slash is how wide
the subnet is. Typical values are /24
(for 255 addresses) and /28 (for 15
addresses.)
filename to ping the hosts listed in the given
file. This file can be in the format
used by /etc/hosts, or it can be any
file that has host names as the first
element on each line. If you use ssh,
try this:
sonar -ping $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts
-team-a-name string
In simulation mode, the name of team A.
-team-b-name string
In simulation mode, the name of team B.
-team-a-count int
In simulation mode, the number of bogies on team A.
-team-b-count int
In simulation mode, the number of bogies on team B.
RESOURCES
Configuration of the targets to ping is best done by setting
X Resources.
background (Color)
See option -background, above; default value is
black.
sweepColor (Color)
See option -sweep-color, above; default value is
#00ff00.
scopeColor (Color)
See option -scope-color, above; default value is
#003300.
gridColor (Color)
See option -grid-color, above; default value is
#00aa00.
textColor (Color)
See option -text-color, above; default value is
#ffff00.
ttl (integer)
See option -ttl, above; default value is 90 or one
sweep.
ping (string)
See option -ping, above. If set to default, it will
ping the contents of /etc/hosts if possible, other-
wise, will run in simulation-mode.
font (font)
See option -font, above; default value is fixed.
pingTimeout (Integer)
See option -pingtimeout, above; default value is
3000.
teamAName string
See option -team-a-name, above. Default value is
F18.
teamBName string
See option -teamBName, above. Default value is MIG.
teamACount int
See option -teamACount, above. Default value is 4.
teamBCount int
See option -teamBCount, above. Default value is 4.
NOTES
In order to use the ping sensor, this program must be
installed as setuid root, so that it can create an ICMP
socket.
