class ARP(baseobj.BaseObj)

ARP object

Usage:
    from packet.internet.arp import ARP

    x = ARP(pktt)

Object definition:

ARP(
    htype = int,    # Hardware type
    ptype = int,    # Protocol type
    hlen  = int,    # Byte length for each hardware address
    plen  = int,    # Byte length for each protocol address
    oper  = int,    # Opcode
    sha   = string, # Hardware address of sender of this packet
    spa   = string, # Protocol address of sender of this packet
    tha   = string, # Hardware address of target of this packet
    tpa   = string, # Protocol address of target of this packet
)


Methods defined here:
---------------------

__init__(self, pktt)
Constructor

Initialize object's private data.

pktt:
Packet trace object (packet.pktt.Pktt) so this layer has access to the parent layers.
 

class RARP(ARP)

ARP object

Usage:
    from packet.internet.arp import ARP

    x = ARP(pktt)

Object definition:

ARP(
    htype = int,    # Hardware type
    ptype = int,    # Protocol type
    hlen  = int,    # Byte length for each hardware address
    plen  = int,    # Byte length for each protocol address
    oper  = int,    # Opcode
    sha   = string, # Hardware address of sender of this packet
    spa   = string, # Protocol address of sender of this packet
    tha   = string, # Hardware address of target of this packet
    tpa   = string, # Protocol address of target of this packet
)
