# arping
arping is a native go library to ping a host per arp datagram, or query a host mac address
The currently supported platforms are: Linux and BSD.
## Usage
### arping library
* import this library per `import "github.com/j-keck/arping"`
* export GOPATH if not already (`export GOPATH=$PWD`)
* download the library `go get`
* run it `sudo -E go run <YOUR PROGRAMM>`
