Mirrors TCP traffic between a client and a forward host, but also sends the same traffic to a mirror host. The response from the mirror is thrown away.
From source:
git clone https://github.com/84codes/tcpprism.git
cd tcpprism
shards build --release --production
install bin/tcpprism /usr/local/bin/
Or download precompiled binaries.
Usage: tcpprism [arguments]
-l, --listen=ADDR Address and port to listen on (required)
-f, --forward=ADDR Address and port to forward traffic to (required)
-m, --mirror=ADDR Address and port to mirror traffic to (required)
-h, --help Show this help
If you for example would like to mirror the traffic currently coming in to a
server on port 80, to another server also running on port 80, but without
stopping and changing port of the original server, you can use trick with
iptables that redirects port 80 to the tcpprism server, which in turn will
forward the traffic to both the original server and the server on the other
host.
