+
+collectd-tg - Traffic generator for collectd.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+collectd-tg B<-n> I<num_vl> B<-H> I<num_hosts> B<-p> I<num_plugins> B<-i> I<interval> B<-d> I<dest> B<-D> I<dport>
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+B<collectd-tg> generates bogus I<collectd> network traffic. While host, plugin
+and values are generated randomly, the generated traffic tries to mimic "real"
+traffic as closely as possible.
+

+
+The following options are understood by I<collectd-tg>. The order of the
+arguments generally doesn't matter, as long as no argument is passed more than
+once.
