=head1 NAME

NetPacket::ARP - Assemble and disassemble ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) packets.

=head1 VERSION

version 1.5.0

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use NetPacket::ARP;

  $tcp_obj = NetPacket::ARP->decode($raw_pkt);
  $tcp_pkt = NetPacket::ARP->encode(params...);   # Not implemented

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C provides a set of routines for assembling and
disassembling packets using ARP (Address Resolution Protocol).

=head2 Methods

=over

=item Cdecode([RAW PACKET])>

Decode the raw packet data given and return an object containing
instance data.  This method will quite happily decode garbage input.
It is the responsibility of the programmer to ensure valid packet data
is passed to this method.

=item Cencode(param =E value)>

Return a ARP packet encoded with the instance data specified.  Not
implemented.

=back

=head2 Functions

=over

=item C

Return the encapsulated data (or payload) contained in the TCP packet.
Since no payload data is encapulated in an ARP packet (only instance
data), this function returns undef.

=back

=head2 Instance data

The instance data for the C object consists of
the following fields.

=over

=item htype

Hardware type.

=item proto

Protocol type.

=item hlen

Header length.

=item plen

Protocol length.

=item opcode

One of the following constants:

=over

=item * ARP_OPCODE_REQUEST

=item * ARP_OPCODE_REPLY

=item * RARP_OPCODE_REQUEST

=item * RARP_OPCODE_REPLY

=back

=item sha

Source hardware address.

=item spa

Source protocol address.

=item tha

Target hardware address.

=item tpa

Target protocol address.

=back

=head2 Exports

=over

=item default

none

=item exportable

none

=item tags

The following tags group together related exportable items.

=over

=item C<:ALL>

All the above exportable items.

=back

=back

=head1 EXAMPLE

Print out arp requests on the local network.

  #!/usr/bin/perl -w

  use Net::PcapUtils;
  use NetPacket::Ethernet qw(:types);
  use NetPacket::ARP;

  sub process_pkt {
    my ($arg, $hdr, $pkt) = @_;

    my $eth_obj = NetPacket::Ethernet->decode($pkt);

    if ($eth_obj->{type} == ETH_TYPE_ARP) {
	my $arp_obj = NetPacket::ARP->decode($eth_obj->{data}, $eth_obj);
	print("source hw addr=$arp_obj->{sha}, " .
	      "dest hw addr=$arp_obj->{tha}\n");
    }
  }

Net::PcapUtils::loop(\&process_pkt);

=head1 TODO

=over

=item Implement encode() function

=item Does this work for protocols other than IP?  Need to read RFC.

=item Example is a bit silly
