DESCRIPTION
    A simple utility suitable for testing NetFlow applications. It generates
    pseudo-random NetFlow packets and sends them to specified collector.

BUILD
    make

USAGE
    ./nfgen [-a address] [-p port] [-s seed] [-o file]
        -a collector address (default 127.0.0.1)
        -p destination port (default 2055)
        -s generator seed (default 1)
        -o output file

EXAMPLES
    ./nfgen -a 147.229.176.14 -p2055 -s5

TESTING
    Testing of this utility can be done using netcat. Make nc listen on the
    specified UDP port

        nc -ul 2055 > recieved

    and run nfgen with -o option.

        ./nfgen -a 127.0.0.1 -p 2055 -o sent

    nfgen will dump everything it sends to a file. Then diff the files and see.
