NAME

       packet.link.ethernet - ETHERNET module

DESCRIPTION

       Decode ethernet layer (RFC 894) Ethernet II.

CLASSES

   class ETHERNET(baseobj.BaseObj)
       Ethernet object

       Usage:
           from packet.link.ethernet import ETHERNET

           x = ETHERNET(pktt)

       Object definition:

       ETHERNET(
           dst   = MacAddr(),  # destination MAC address
           src   = MacAddr(),  # source MAC address
           type  = int,        # payload type
           psize = int,        # payload data size
           data  = string,     # raw data of payload if type is not supported
       )

       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.

       __str__(self)
       String representation of object

       The representation depends on the verbose level set by debug_repr().
       If set to 0 the generic object representation is returned.
       If set to 1 the representation of the object is condensed:
           '00:0c:29:54:09:ef -> 60:33:4b:29:6e:9d '

       If set to 2 the representation of the object also includes the type
       of payload:
           '00:0c:29:54:09:ef -> 60:33:4b:29:6e:9d, type: 0x800(IPv4)'
