traceanon anonymises a trace by replacing IP addresses found in the IP header,
and any embedded packets inside an ICMP packet. It also fixes the checksums
inside TCP and UDP headers.
Two anonymisation schemes are supported, the first replaces a
prefix with another prefix. This can be used for instance to replace a /16
with the equivilent prefix from RFC1918. The other scheme is cryptopan which
is a prefix preserving encryption scheme based on AES.
- -s
- --encrypt-source
- encrypt only source ip addresses.
- -d
- --encrypt-dest
- encrypt only destination ip addresses.
- -p
- --prefix=prefix
- substitute the high bits of the IP addresses with the provided prefix.
- -c
- --cryptopan=key
- encrypt the IP addresses using the prefix-preserving cryptopan method
using the key "key". The key can be up to 32 bytes long, and
will be padded with NULL characters.
- -f
- --keyfile=file
- encrypt the IP addresses using the prefix-preserving cryptopan method
using the key specified in the file "file". The key must be 32
bytes long. A suitable method of generating a key is by using the command
dd to read from /dev/urandom.
- -z
- --compress-level=level
- compress the output trace using a compression level of "level".
Compression level can range from 0 (no compression) through to 9. Higher
compression levels require more CPU to compress data. Defaults to no
compression.
- -Z
- --compress-type=method
- compress the output trace using the compression algorithm
"method". Possible algorithms are "gzip",
"bzip2", "lzo" and "none". Default is
"none".

This software should support encrypting based on the direction/interface flag.
IP addresses inside ARP's are not encrypted.
