NetPacket::IP(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation NetPacket::IP(3pm)NAMENetPacket::IP - Assemble and disassemble IP (Internet Protocol)
packets.
VERSION
version 1.6.0
SYNOPSIS
use NetPacket::IP;
$ip_obj = NetPacket::IP->decode($raw_pkt);
$ip_pkt = NetPacket::IP->encode($ip_obj);
$ip_data = NetPacket::IP::strip($raw_pkt);
DESCRIPTION
"NetPacket::IP" provides a set of routines for assembling and
disassembling packets using IP (Internet Protocol).
Methods
"NetPacket::IP->decode([RAW PACKET])"
Decode the raw packet data given and return an object containing
instance data. This method will quite happily decode garbage
input. It is the responsibility of the programmer to ensure valid
packet data is passed to this method.
"NetPacket::IP->encode()"
Return an IP packet encoded with the instance data specified. This
will infer the total length of the packet automatically from the
payload length and also adjust the checksum.
Functions
"NetPacket::IP::strip([RAW PACKET])"
Return the encapsulated data (or payload) contained in the IP
packet. This data is suitable to be used as input for other
"NetPacket::*" modules.
This function is equivalent to creating an object using the
"decode()" constructor and returning the "data" field of that
object.
Instance data
The instance data for the "NetPacket::IP" object consists of the
following fields.
ver The IP version number of this packet.
hlen
The IP header length of this packet.
flags
The IP header flags for this packet.
foffset
The IP fragment offset for this packet.
tos The type-of-service for this IP packet.
len The length (including length of header) in bytes for this packet.
id The identification (sequence) number for this IP packet.
ttl The time-to-live value for this packet.
proto
The IP protocol number for this packet.
cksum
The IP checksum value for this packet.
src_ip
The source IP address for this packet in dotted-quad notation.
dest_ip
The destination IP address for this packet in dotted-quad notation.
options
Any IP options for this packet.
data
The encapsulated data (payload) for this IP packet.
Exports

tags
The following tags group together related exportable items.
":protos"
IP_PROTO_IP IP_PROTO_ICMP IP_PROTO_IGMP IP_PROTO_IPIP
IP_PROTO_TCP IP_PROTO_UDP
":versions"
IP_VERSION_IPv4
":strip"
Import the strip function "ip_strip".
":ALL"
All the above exportable items.
EXAMPLE
The following script dumps IP frames by IP address and protocol to
standard output.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use Net::PcapUtils;
use NetPacket::Ethernet qw(:strip);
use NetPacket::IP;
sub process_pkt {
my ($user, $hdr, $pkt) = @_;
my $ip_obj = NetPacket::IP->decode(eth_strip($pkt));
print("$ip_obj->{src_ip}:$ip_obj->{dest_ip} $ip_obj->{proto}\n");
}
Net::PcapUtils::loop(\&process_pkt, FILTER => 'ip');
