-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Net::ARP Programmed by Bastian Ballmann Web: http://www.datenterrorist.de Mail: balle@chaostal.de Last Update: 31.01.2007 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ---:[ Description This module is a Perl extension to create and send ARP packets and lookup local or remote mac addresses. You do not need to install any additional libraries like Libnet to compile this extension. It uses kernel header files to create the packets. ---:[ IMPORTANT NOTICE Version 1.0 will break with the API of PRE-1.0 versions, because the return value of arp_lookup() and get_mac() will no longer be passed as parameter, but returned! I hope this decision is ok as long as we get a cleaner and more perlish API. ---:[ Installation To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install ---:[ Usage Please read the POD documentation: perldoc Net::ARP. If you've still any questions feel free to ask. ---:[ Want to contribute? Please drop me a mail and if you want to submit patches please generate them using "diff -Nru" on the latest version. There's also the possibility to exchange changes using the distributed version control system monotone. Last but not least new code should be commented and I like test code ;) ---:[ COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2004-2007 by Bastian Ballmann This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself, either Perl version 5.8.1 or, at your option, any later version of Perl 5 you may have available.
