| Summary : A network packet construction and injection API
|
Description :
Libnet is a high-level API (toolkit) that allows 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 multi- plexing, buffer management, arcane packet header information, byte- ordering, OS-dependent issues, and much more. Libnet features portable packet creation interfaces at the IP layer and link layer, as well as a host of supplementary and complementary functionality.
