NAME

Net::Frame::Layer::RIPng - Routing Information Protocol ng layer object

SYNOPSIS

   use Net::Frame::Simple;
   use Net::Frame::Layer::RIPng qw(:consts);

   my $layer = Net::Frame::Layer::RIPng->new(
      command  => NF_RIPNG_COMMAND_REQUEST,
      version  => 1,
      reserved => 0,
   );

   #
   # Read a raw layer
   #

   my $layer = Net::Frame::Layer::RIPng->new(raw => $raw);

   print $layer->print."\n";
   print 'PAYLOAD: '.unpack('H*', $layer->payload)."\n"
      if $layer->payload;

DESCRIPTION

This modules implements the encoding and decoding of the RIPng layer.

See also Net::Frame::Layer for other attributes and methods.

ATTRIBUTES

command

RIP command. See CONSTANTS for more information.

version

RIPng protocol version: 1 valid.

Default set to 0.

raw
payload
nextLayer

METHODS

new
new (hash)

Object constructor. You can pass attributes that will overwrite default ones. See SYNOPSIS for default values.

getKey
getKeyReverse

These two methods are basically used to increase the speed when using recv method from Net::Frame::Simple. Usually, you write them when you need to write match method.

match (Net::Frame::Layer::RIPng object)

This method is mostly used internally. You pass a Net::Frame::Layer::RIPng layer as a parameter, and it returns true if this is a response corresponding for the request, or returns false if not.

The following are inherited methods. Some of them may be overriden in this layer, and some others may not be meaningful in this layer. See Net::Frame::Layer for more information.

layer
computeLengths
pack
unpack
encapsulate
getLength
getPayloadLength
print
dump

CONSTANTS

Load them: use Net::Frame::Layer::RIPng qw(:consts);

NF_RIPNG_DEST_HWADDR
NF_RIPNG_DEST_ADDR
NF_RIPNG_DEST_PORT

Default destination Ethernet address, IPv6 address and UDP port.

NF_RIPNG_COMMAND_REQUEST
NF_RIPNG_COMMAND_RESPONSE
