ETHERNET(3) ethernet 1.3 ETHERNET(3)

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.

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)'
