8.3 Example: Researcher using FCM to create a log file

In this example, it is assumed that the Researcher has installed and is running the Router part of FCM. The Researcher wishes to log network data once a second, for one minute.
  1. The user types the command to run the logger, giving two command line arguments: one specifying the interval at which data is dumped, and the other specifying how long the log will last.
  2. The user also gives an argument which is the filename to dump the data to.
  3. The user enters this command, and logging starts.
  4. One minute later, the logging completes.
