Branch: pkgsrc-2021Q4, Version: 1.2, Package name: libnet-1.2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Libnet is a high-level API (toolkit) allowing the application programmer to
construct and inject network packets. It provides a portable and simplified
interface for low-level network packet shaping, handling and injection.

Libnet hides much of the tedium of packet creation from the application
programmer such as multiplexing, buffer management, arcane packet header
information, byte-ordering, OS-dependent issues, and much more.

Libnet features portable packet creation interfaces at the IP layer and link
layer, as well as a host of supplementary and complementary functionality.
