    5050As described above this software converts a network trace into a pair of Tmix input files which are then used to replay the traffic.  Currently only pcap format network trace files are supported for conversion into tmix input files.  Pcap is a standard format, and most network traces should be easily output in or converted to the pcap format.  The Tmix software requires that the direction of each packet be identified.  Packets can be either incoming packets or outgoing packets.  Incoming packets are those entering an institution or machine over a link, and likewise outgoing packets are those leaving an institution or machine.  When monitoring a link in the middle of a network, users may choose to arbitrarily label one direction as incoming and the other as outgoing.  Please note, the incoming and outgoing classification relates only to the direction of travel of the packet, and not to which side initiated the tcp connection (i.e. inbound connection).
