httpry: Read from an input capture file and filter by IP.
$ httpry -r ${filename-log} '${host 192-168-5-25}'
try on your machine

The command you provided is using the httpry tool to analyze and parse a network packet capture file. Let's break down the command step by step:

  1. httpry: This is the name of the tool or program that is being executed.

  2. -r ${filename-log}: This flag instructs httpry to read the packet capture file specified by the ${filename-log} variable. The ${filename-log} is likely a placeholder for the actual filename a user would provide when executing the command.

  3. '${host 192-168-5-25}': This part of the command is used to specify a filter to extract specific information from the packet capture related to the given host. The 192-168-5-25 is an IP address, and the host keyword is used to specify that we are filtering based on the host field in the HTTP request. The single quotation marks ' ' are used to prevent the shell from interpreting any special characters within the filter.

Overall, this command tells httpry to read the packet capture file and then filter the captured data to display only the HTTP requests related to the host with the IP address 192.168.5.25.
