I ended up cloning the pping repo and running make locally.
Installing was a few steps:
1. mkdir ~/src/libtins/build
2. cd ~/src/libtins/build
3. make
4. sudo make install
5. cd ~/src
7. cd pping
8. make
9. ./pping
The promise of this, as Kathleen Nichols points out, is that we can passively monitor production flows to get a novel sense of end to end performance per flow. I don't know of any other passive monitoring technique, beyond a port mirror + a whole gang of systems, that can provide this level of detail. Please enlighten me if I'm wrong. The only other passive monitoring mechanisms I'm aware of are SNMP polling, IPFIX/*Flow, and Streaming Telemetry Interface. None of those systems provide end to end flow performance details. The standard in-band active monitoring tools are good for determining node to node and full path metrics, but this provides a more complete picture of end to end performance beyond active y.1731/802.3ag/OAM probes. I'm a little surprised that I'm only learning about it now.
Now to figure out how to make it show me something..
