Here is an example of the default output:
Host: www.html-kit.com
IP sources: 192.168.20.22
Resource: /tools/cookietester/
Request type: GET
TestCookie_Name_201607045556 = TestCookie_Value_155556
TestCookie_Name_201607045620 = TestCookie_Value_155620
With option -C, each output line will follow the following structure:
host;ip_source;resource_requested;request_type;cookie_1_name;cookie_1_value;cookie_2_name;cookie_2_value;...
Here is an example:
www.html-kit.com;192.168.20.22;/tools/cookietester/;GET;TestCookie_Name_201607045556;TestCookie_Value_155556;TestCookie_Name_201607045620;TestCookie_Value_155620
