NetPacket::ICMP - Assemble and disassemble ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) packets.
version 1.7.2
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).
NetPacket::ICMP
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.
NetPacket::ICMP::strip([RAW PACKET])
Return the encapsulated data (or payload) contained in the ICMP packet.
The instance data for the NetPacket::ICMP object consists of the following fields.
The ICMP message type of this packet.
The ICMP message code of this packet.
The checksum for this packet.
The encapsulated data (payload) for this packet.
none
ICMP message types: ICMP_ECHOREPLY ICMP_UNREACH ICMP_SOURCEQUENCH ICMP_REDIRECT ICMP_ECHO ICMP_ROUTERADVERT ICMP_ROUTERSOLICIT ICMP_TIMXCEED ICMP_PARAMPROB ICMP_TSTAMP ICMP_TSTAMPREPLY ICMP_IREQ ICMP_IREQREPLY ICMP_MASKREQ ICMP_MASKREPLY
The following tags group together related exportable items.

:strip
Import the strip function icmp_strip.
icmp_strip
:ALL
All the above exportable items.
The following example prints the ICMP type, code, and checksum fields.
