NetPacket::ICMP is a Perl module to assemble and disassemble ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) packets.

SYNOPSIS

use NetPacket::ICMP;

$icmp_obj = NetPacket::ICMP->decode($raw_pkt);
$icmp_pkt = NetPacket::ICMP->encode();
$icmp_data = NetPacket::ICMP::strip($raw_pkt);

NetPacket::ICMP provides a set of routines for assembling and disassembling packets using ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol).

Methods

NetPacket::ICMP->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::ICMP->encode()
Return an ICMP packet encoded with the instance data specified.
