NAME

Net::Frame::ICMPv4::AddressMask - ICMPv4 AddressMask type object

SYNOPSIS

use Net::Packet::Consts qw(:icmpv4);
require Net::Packet::ICMPv4;

# Build echo-request header
my $echo = Net::Packet::ICMPv4->new(data => '0123456789');

# Build information-request header
my $info = Net::Packet::ICMPv4->new(
   type => NP_ICMPv4_TYPE_INFORMATION_REQUEST,
   data => '0123456789',
);

# Build address-mask request header
my $mask = Net::Packet::ICMPv4->new(
   type => NP_ICMPv4_TYPE_ADDRESS_MASK_REQUEST,
   data => '0123456789',
);

# Build timestamp request header
my $timestamp = Net::Packet::ICMPv4->new(
   type => NP_ICMPv4_TYPE_TIMESTAMP_REQUEST,
   data => '0123456789',
);
$timestamp->pack;

print 'RAW: '.unpack('H*', $timestamp->raw)."\n";

# Read a raw layer
my $layer = Net::Packet::ICMPv4->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 ICMPv4 layer.

RFC: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc792.txt
