Net::Frame::Layer::IPv4 - Internet Protocol v4 layer object
Contents
Attributes
id IP ID of the datagram.
ttl Time to live.
srcdst Source and destination IP addresses.
protocol
Of which type the layer 4 is.
checksum
IP checksum.
flags
IP Flags.
offset
IP fragment offset.
version
IP version, here it is 4.
tos Type of service flag.
length
Total length in bytes of the packet, including IP headers (that is, layer 3 + layer 4 + layer 7).
hlen
Header length in number of words, including IP options.
options
IP options, as a hexadecimal string.
noFixLen
Since the byte ordering of length attribute varies from system to system, a subroutine inside this
module detects which byte order to use. Sometimes, like when you build Net::Frame::Layer::8021Q
layers, you may have the need to avoid this. So set it to 1 in order to avoid fixing. Default is 0
(that is to fix).
The following are inherited attributes. See Net::Frame::Layer for more information.

Description
This modules implements the encoding and decoding of the IPv4 layer.
RFC: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc791.txt
See also Net::Frame::Layer for other attributes and methods.
Methods
newnew (hash)
Object constructor. You can pass attributes that will overwrite default ones. See SYNOPSIS for
default values.
getHeaderLength
Returns the header length in bytes, not including IP options.
getOptionsLength
Returns the length in bytes of IP options. 0 if none.
computeLengths ({ payloadLength => VALUE })
In order to compute lengths attributes within IPv4 header, you need to pass via a hashref the number
of bytes contained in IPv4 payload (that is, the sum of all layers after the IPv4 one).
computeChecksums
Computes the IPv4 checksum.
The following are inherited methods. Some of them may be overridden in this layer, and some others may
not be meaningful in this layer. See Net::Frame::Layer for more information.
