Description: library for the construction and handling of network packets
libnet provides a portable framework for low-level network packet
writing and handling.
.
Libnet features portable packet creation interfaces at the IP layer and
link layer, as well as a host of supplementary functionality. Still in
it's infancy however, the library is evolving quite a bit. Additional
functionality and stability are added with each release.
.
Using libnet, quick and simple packet assembly applications can be
whipped up with little effort. With a bit more time, more complex
programs can be written (Traceroute and ping were easily rewritten
using libnet and libpcap).
