Überblick
C library for creating IP packets
Verlauf
libnet is a C library for constructing and injecting network packets. It occupies the low-level packet-building side of the classic libpcap/libnet pairing: libpcap captures packets, while libnet gives test tools, scanners, and protocol experiments a portable API for emitting packets with controlled headers.
The project traces its 1.1 line to Mike D. Schiffman's Packetfactory-era work, with project materials crediting libnet 1.1 to 1998-2004. The maintained 1.1.3-and-later line was revived by Sam Roberts starting in 2009 after the older Packetfactory-hosted code had become unmaintained.
The 1.1 API was a significant break from 1.0.x code. The migration guide describes the change as a simplification from a five-step packet workflow to initialization, packet building, and packet writing, and the README warns that libnet 1.0.x code is incompatible with libnet 1.1.x and later.
libnet spread through security and networking tools because it hides byte ordering, buffer management, and link/IP layer packet assembly details while still allowing deliberate packet shaping. The official README names packaged tools such as arping, ettercap, nemesis, packit, tcptraceroute, and yersinia as libnet users.
Developers include libnet through libnet.h and link with -lnet. The project retained libnet-config for compatibility but moved new integration guidance toward pkg-config, with libnet.pc replacing the older helper in modern builds.
For package maintainers, libnet is notable because it is tiny in concept but sits on privileged and platform-specific network interfaces. Its ABI break between 1.0.x and 1.1.x, the revival from an abandoned upstream, and the long-lived libnet-config compatibility shim are exactly the sort of details that explain why distributions keep careful split packages and rebuild notes for it.
