NAME

       packet.internet.arp - ARP module

DESCRIPTION

       Decode ARP and RARP layers.

       RFC  826  An  Ethernet  Address  Resolution  Protocol RFC 903 A Reverse Address Resolution
       Protocol

CLASSES

   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
       )

   class arp_oper(packet.utils.Enum)
       enum arp_oper
