Crate pnet_transport

Support for implementing transport layer protocols

The transport module provides the ability to send and receive packets at the transport layer using IPv4 or IPv6. It also enables layer 3 networking for specific transport protocols, using IPv4 only.

Note that this is limited by operating system support - for example, on OS X and FreeBSD, it is impossible to implement protocols which are already implemented in the kernel such as TCP and UDP.

Macros

• transport_channel_iterator
  Create an iterator for some packet type.

Structs

• Config
  Structure used for holding all configurable options for describing possible options for transport channels.
• IcmpTransportChannelIterator
  An iterator over packets of type IcmpPacket.
• Icmpv6TransportChannelIterator
  An iterator over packets of type Icmpv6Packet.
• Ipv4TransportChannelIterator
  An iterator over packets of type Ipv4Packet.
• TcpTransportChannelIterator
  An iterator over packets of type TcpPacket.
• TransportReceiver
  Structure used for receiving at the transport layer. Should be created with transport_channel().
• TransportSender
  Structure used for sending at the transport layer. Should be created with transport_channel().
• UdpTransportChannelIterator
  An iterator over packets of type UdpPacket.

Enums

• TransportChannelType
  Type of transport channel to present.
• TransportProtocol
  Represents a transport layer protocol.
