Another option is that it can "spoof" the IP source address, +so that the copies appear to come from the original source, rather than the relay. +.SH OPTIONS +The following command-line options are accepted by the server: +.IP "\-p \fIport\fP" +UDP port to accept flows on. Default \- 2000. +.IP "\-s \fIaddress\fP" +interface address to accept flows on. Default \- any. +.IP "\-d \fIlevel\fP" +debug level +.IP "\-b \fIsize\fP" +set socket buffer size.
