libnet10 - High-level API (toolkit) to construct and inject network packets

Description:
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. Using libnet, quick and simple
packet assembly applications can be whipped up with little effort. With a bit
more time, more complex programs can be written (Traceroute and ping were
easily rewritten using libnet and libpcap).
