Libnet is a high-level API (toolkit) allowing the application programmer to
|
|
|
|
|
construct and inject network packets. It provides a portable and simplified
|
|
|
|
|
interface for low-level network packet shaping, handling and injection.
|
|
|
|
|
Libnet hides much of the tedium of packet creation from the application
|
|
|
|
|
programmer such as multiplexing, buffer management, arcane packet header
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
features portable packet creation interfaces at the IP layer and link layer,
