   12: actively maintained, and rereleased.

   29:  
   30:     Libnet is an API to help with the construction and handling of network
   31:     packets.  It provides a portable framework for low-level network
   32:     packet writing and handling (use libnet in conjunction with libpcap and
   33:     you can write some really cool stuff).  Libnet includes packet creation
   34:     at the IP layer and at the link layer as well as a host of supplementary
   35:     and complementary functionality.  Libnet is very handy with which to
   36:     write network tools and network test code.  See the manpage and sample
   37:     test code for more detailed information.
   38:     
   39:     Your old code (circa libnet-1.0.x) WILL NOT WORK with libnet-1.1.x.
   40:     Read doc/MIGRATION for easy steps on porting your old code.
