NAME

Net::Packet::PPP - Point-to-Point Protocol layer 2 object

SYNOPSIS

    use Net::Packet::Consts qw(:ppp);
    require Net::Packet::PPP;
 
    # Build a layer
    my $layer = Net::Packet::PPP->new(
       protocol => NP_PPP_PROTOCOL_IPv4,
    );
    $layer->pack;
 
    print 'RAW: '.unpack('H*', $layer->raw)."\n";
 
    # Read a raw layer
    my $layer = Net::Packet::PPP->new(raw => $raw);
 
    print $layer->print."\n";
    print 'PAYLOAD: '.unpack('H*', $layer->payload)."\n"
       if $layer->payload;

This modules implements the encoding and decoding of the Point-to-Point Protocol layer.

See also Net::Packet::Layer and Net::Packet::Layer2 for other attributes and methods.

ATTRIBUTES

protocol - 16 bits

METHODS

new
