.Nm tcpdrop
.Op Fl l
.Op Fl C Ar cc-algo
.Op Fl S Ar stack
.Fl s Ar state
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
command may be used to drop TCP connections from the command line.
.Pp
If
.Fl a
is specified then
.Nm
will attempt to drop all TCP connections.
.Pp
If
.Fl C Ar cc-algo
is specified then
.Nm
will attempt to drop all connections using the TCP congestion control algorithm
.Ar cc-algo .
.Pp
If
.Fl S Ar stack
is specified then
.Nm
will attempt to drop all connections using the TCP stack
.Ar stack .
.Pp
If
.Fl s Ar state
is specified then
.Nm
will attempt to drop all TCP connections being in the state
.Ar state .
.Ar state
is one of
.Dv SYN_SENT ,
.Dv SYN_RCVD ,
.Dv ESTABLISHED ,
.Dv CLOSE_WAIT ,
.Dv FIN_WAIT_1 ,
.Dv CLOSING ,
.Dv LAST_ACK ,
.Dv FIN_WAIT_2 , or
.Dv TIME_WAIT .
.Pp
If multiple of
.Fl C Ar cc-algo ,
.Fl S Ar stack ,
and
.Fl s Ar state
are specified,
.Nm
will attempt to drop all TCP connections using the congestion control algorithm
.Ar cc-algo ,
being in the state
.Ar state ,
and using the TCP stack
.Ar stack ,
if specified.
Since TCP connections in the
.Dv TIME_WAIT
state are not tied to any TCP stack, using the option
.Fl s Dv TIME_WAIT
in combination with the
.Fl S Ar stack
option results in
.Nm
not dropping any TCP connection.
.Pp
The
.Fl l
flag may be given in addition to the
.Fl a ,
.Fl C ,
.Fl S ,
or
.Fl s
options to list the tcpdrop invocation to drop all corresponding TCP
connections one at a time.
.Pp
If none of the
.Fl a ,
.Fl C ,
.Fl S ,
or
.Fl s
options are specified then only the connection between the given local
address
.Ar local-address ,
port
.Ar local-port ,
and the foreign address
.Ar foreign-address ,
port
.Ar foreign-port ,
will be dropped.
.Pp
Addresses and ports may be specified by name or numeric value.
Both IPv4 and IPv6 address formats are supported.
.Pp
The addresses and ports may be separated by periods or colons
instead of spaces.
.Sh EXIT STATUS
.Ex -std
.Sh EXAMPLES
If a connection to
.Xr httpd 8
is causing congestion on a network link, one can drop the TCP session
in charge:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# sockstat -c | grep httpd
www      httpd      16525 3  tcp4 \e
	192.168.5.41:80      192.168.5.1:26747
.Ed
.Pp
The following command will drop the connection:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# tcpdrop 192.168.5.41 80 192.168.5.1 26747
.Ed
.Pp
The following command will drop all connections but those to or from
port 22, the port used by
.Xr sshd 8 :
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# tcpdrop -l -a | grep -vw 22 | sh
.Ed
.Pp
To drop all TCP connections using the new-reno congestion control algorithm use:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# tcpdrop -C new-reno
.Ed
.Pp
The following command will drop all connections using the TCP stack
rack:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# tcpdrop -S rack
.Ed
.Pp
To drop all TCP connections in the LAST_ACK state use:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# tcpdrop -s LAST_ACK
.Ed
.Pp
To drop all TCP connections using the congestion control algorithm new-reno and
the TCP stack rack and being in the LAST_ACK state use:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# tcpdrop -C new-reno -S rack -s LAST_ACK
.Ed
