tcpkill – kill TCP connections on a LAN

Synopsis

tcpkill [-i interface] [-1…9] expression

Options

-i interface

Specify the interface to listen on.

-1…9

Specify the degree of brute force to use in killing a connection. Fast connections may require a higher number in order to land a RST in the moving receive window. Default is 3.

expression
