SYNOPSIS

spipe -t <target socket> -k <key file> [-f | -g] [-j] [-o <connection timeout>]

OPTIONS

-t <target socket>

Address to which spipe should connect.

-k <key file>

Use the provided key file to authenticate and encrypt.

-f

Use fast/weak handshaking: This reduces the CPU time spent in the initial connection setup, at the expense of losing perfect forward secrecy.

-g

Require perfect forward secrecy by dropping connections if the other host is using the -f option.

-j

Disable transport layer keep-alives. (By default they are enabled.)

-o <connection timeout>

Timeout, in seconds, after which an attempt to connect to the target or a protocol handshake will be aborted (and the connection dropped) if not completed. Defaults to 5s.
