ArpPacket

class

ARP packet. This is a specialized version: prepared for IEEE 802 hardware addresses and IPv4. Packet fields are therefore represented by C++ classes MACAddress and IPv4Address. Also, some ARP protocol header fields are not modelled explicitly (their values are implied):

hardwareType (not needed for modelling);
protocol type (0x800 IPv4)
hardware address length (6)
protocol address length (4)
