+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+*randpktdump* is a extcap tool that provides access to the random
+packet generator (randpkt). It is mainly used for testing and
+educational purpose.
+
+== OPTIONS
+
+--help::
+Print program arguments.
+
+--version::
+Print program version.
+
+--extcap-interfaces::
+List available interfaces.
+
+--extcap-interface=<interface>::
+Use specified interfaces.
+
+--extcap-dlts::
+List DLTs of specified interface.
+
+--extcap-config::
+List configuration options of specified interface.
+
+--capture::
+Start capturing from specified interface save saved it in place specified by --fifo.
+
+--fifo=<path to file or pipe>::
+Save captured packet to file or send it through pipe.
+
+--maxbytes=<bytes>::
+Set the max number of bytes per packet.
+
+--count=<num>::
+Number of packets to generate (-1 for infinite).
+
+--delay=<ms>::
+Wait a number of milliseconds after writing each packet.
+
+--random-type::
+Choose a random packet type for all packets if set to true.
+
+--all-random::
+Choose a different random packet type for each packet if set to true.
+
+--type=<packet type>::
+Use the selected packet type. To list all the available packet type, run randpktdump --help.
+
+== EXAMPLES
+
+To see program arguments:
+
+    randpktdump --help
+
+To see program version:
+
+    randpktdump --version
+
+To see interfaces:
+
+    randpktdump --extcap-interfaces
+
+.Example output
+    interface {value=randpkt}{display=Random packet generator}
+
+To see interface DLTs:
+
+    randpktdump --extcap-interface=randpkt --extcap-dlts
+
+.Example output
+    dlt {number=1}{name=randpkt}{display=Ethernet}
+
+To see interface configuration options:
+
+    randpktdump --extcap-interface=randpkt --extcap-config
+
+.Example output
+    arg {number=0}{call=--maxbytes}{display=Max bytes in a packet}{type=unsigned}{range=1,5000}{default=5000}{tooltip=The max number of bytes in a packet}
+    arg {number=1}{call=--count}{display=Number of packets}{type=long}{default=1000}{tooltip=Number of packets to generate (-1 for infinite)}
+    arg {number=2}{call=--delay}{display=Packet delay (ms)}{type=long}{default=0}{tooltip=Milliseconds to wait after writing each packet}
+    arg {number=3}{call=--random-type}{display=Random type}{type=boolflag}{default=false}{tooltip=The packets type is randomly chosen}
+    arg {number=4}{call=--all-random}{display=All random packets}{type=boolflag}{default=false}{tooltip=Packet type for each packet is randomly chosen}
+    arg {number=5}{call=--type}{display=Type of packet}{type=selector}{tooltip=Type of packet to generate}
+    value {arg=5}{value=arp}{display=Address Resolution Protocol}
+    [...]
+    value {arg=5}{value=usb-linux}{display=Universal Serial Bus with Linux specific header}
+
+To capture:
+
+    randpktdump --extcap-interface=randpkt --fifo=/tmp/randpkt.pcapng --capture
+
+NOTE: To stop capturing CTRL+C/kill/terminate the application.
