NAME

Net::Frame::Layer::IPv4 - Internet Protocol v4 layer object

SYNOPSIS

use Net::Frame::Layer::IPv4 qw(:consts);

# Build a layer
my $layer = Net::Frame::Layer::IPv4->new(
   version  => 4,
   tos      => 0,
   id       => getRandom16bitsInt(),
   length   => NF_IPv4_HDR_LEN,
   hlen     => 5,
   flags    => 0,
   offset   => 0,
   ttl      => 128,
   protocol => NF_IPv4_PROTOCOL_TCP,
   checksum => 0,
   src      => '127.0.0.1',
   dst      => '127.0.0.1',
   options  => '',
   noFixLen => 0,
);
$layer->pack;

print 'RAW: '.$layer->dump."\n";

# Read a raw layer
my $layer = Net::Frame::Layer::IPv4->new(raw => $raw);

print $layer->print."\n";
print 'PAYLOAD: '.unpack('H*', $layer->payload)."\n"
   if $layer->payload;

DESCRIPTION

This modules implements the encoding and decoding of the IPv4 layer.

RFC: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc791.txt

See also Net::Frame::Layer for other attributes and methods.

ATTRIBUTES

id

IP ID of the datagram.

ttl

Time to live.

src
dst

Source and destination IP addresses.

protocol

Of which type the layer 4 is.

checksum

IP checksum.

flags

IP Flags.

offset

IP fragment offset.

version

IP version, here it is 4.

tos

Type of service flag.

length

Total length in bytes of the packet, including IP headers (that is, layer 3 + layer 4 + layer 7).

hlen

Header length in number of words, including IP options.

options

IP options, as a hexadecimal string.

noFixLen

Since the byte ordering of length attribute varies from system to system, a subroutine inside this module detects which byte order to use. Sometimes, like when you build Net::Frame::Layer::8021Q layers, you may have the need to avoid this. So set it to 1 in order to avoid fixing. Default is 0 (that is to fix).

The following are inherited attributes. See Net::Frame::Layer for more information.

raw
payload
nextLayer

METHODS

new
new (hash)

Object constructor. You can pass attributes that will overwrite default ones. See SYNOPSIS for default values.

getHeaderLength

Returns the header length in bytes, not including IP options.

getOptionsLength

Returns the length in bytes of IP options. 0 if none.

computeLengths ({ payloadLength => VALUE })

In order to compute lengths attributes within IPv4 header, you need to pass via a hashref the number of bytes contained in IPv4 payload (that is, the sum of all layers after the IPv4 one).

computeChecksums

Computes the IPv4 checksum.

The following are inherited methods. Some of them may be overridden in this layer, and some others may not be meaningful in this layer. See Net::Frame::Layer for more information.
