IPSEND(5) IPSEND(5)
NAME
ipsend - IP packet description language
DESCRIPTION
The ipsend program expects, with the -L option, input to be a text file which fits the grammar described below. The purpose of this grammar is to allow IP packets to be described in an arbitary way which also allows encapsula- tion to be so done to an arbitary level.

COMMANDS
Before sending any packets or defining any packets, it is necessary to describe the interface(s) which will be used to send packets out. interface is used to describe a network interface. The description included need not match the actual con- figuration currently employed by the operating sys- tem. send is used to actually send out a packet across the network. If the destination is not specified, it will attempt to send the packet directly out on the network to the destination without routing it. router configures the default router for ipsend, as dis- tinct from the default route installed in the ker- nel. ipv4 is used to describe an IP (version 4) packet. IP header fields can be specified, including options, followed by a data section which may contain fur- ther protocol headers. IPV4 hl <number> manually specifies the IP header length 2 IPSEND(5) IPSEND(5) (automatically adjusts with the presence of IP options and defaults to 5); v <number> set the IP version. Default is 4. tos <number> set the type of service (TOS) field in the IP header. Default is 0. len <number> manually specifies the length of the IP packet. The length will automatically be adjusted to acco- modate data or further protocol headers. off <number> sets the fragment offset field of the IP packet. Default is 0. ttl <number> sets the time to live (TTL) field of the IP header. Default is 60. proto <protocol> sets the protocol field of the IP header. The pro- tocol can either be a number or a name found in /etc/protocols. sum manually specifies the checksum for the IP header. If left unset (0), it will be calculated prior to being sent. src manually specifies the source address of the IP header. If left unset, it will default to the host's IP address. dst sets the destination of the IP packet. The default is 0.0.0.0. opt is used to include IP options in the IP header. tcp is used to indicate the a TCP protocol header is to follow. See the TCP section for TCP header options. udp is used to indicate the a UDP protocol header is to follow. See the UDP section for UDP header options. icmp is used to indicate the a ICMP protocol header is to follow. See the ICMP section for ICMP header options. data is used to indicate that raw data is to be included 3 IPSEND(5) IPSEND(5) in the IP packet. See the DATA section for details on options available. IPv4 Options these keywords indicate that the releveant IP option should be added to the IP header (the header length field will be adjusted appropriately). nop No Operation [RFC 791] (space filler). rr <number> Record Router [RFC 791]. The number given speci- fies the number of bytes to be used for storage. This should be a multiple of 4 for proper opera- tion. zsu Experimental Measurement. mtup [RFC 1191]. MTU Probe. mtur [RFC 1191]. MTU Ready. encode ts Timestamp [RFC 791]. tr Traceroute [RFC 1393]. sec-class <security-level>, sec Security [RFC 1108]. This option specifies the security label for the packet. Using sec sets up the framework of the security option but unless sec-class is given, the level may not be set. lsrr <ip-address> Loose Source Route [RFC 791]. e-sec Extended Security [RFC 1108]. cipso Commercial Security. satid Stream ID [RFC 791]. ssrr <ip-address> Strict Source Route [RFC 791]. addext Address Extension visa Expermental Access Control. imitd IMI Traffic Descriptor. 4 IPSEND(5) IPSEND(5) eip [RFC 1358]. finn Experimental Flow Control.
TCP
sport <port> sets the source port to the number/name given. Default is 0. dport <port> sets the destination port to the number/name given. Default is 0. seq <number> sets the sequence number to the number specified. Default is 0. ack <number> sets the acknowledge number to the number speci- fied. Default is 0. off <number> sets the offset value for the start of data to the number specified. This implies the size of the TCP header. It is automatically adjusted if TCP options are included and defaults to 5. urp <number> sets the value of the urgent data pointer to the number specified. Default is 0. win <number> sets the size of the TCP window to the number spec- ified. Default is 4096. sum <number> manually specifies the checksum for the TCP pseudo- header and data. If left unset, it defaults to 0 and is automatically calculated. flags <tcp-flags> sets the TCP flags field to match the flags speci- fied. Valid flags are "S" (SYN), "A" (ACK), "R" (RST), "F" (FIN), "U" (URG), "P" (PUSH). opt indicates that TCP header options follow. As TCP options are added to the TCP header, the off field is updated to match. data indicates that a data section is to follow and is to be included as raw data, being appended to the header. 5 IPSEND(5) IPSEND(5) TCP options With a TCP header, it is possible to append a number of header options. The TCP header offset will be updated automatically to reflect the change in size. The valid options are: nop No Operation, eol End Of (option) List, mss [ size ] Maximum Segment Size - this sets the maximum receivable size of a packet containing data, wscale Window Scale, ts Timestamp.
UDP
sport <port> sets the source port to the number/name given. Default is 0. dport <port> sets the destination port to the number/name given. Default is 0. len <number> manually specifies the length of the UDP header and data. If left unset, it is automatically adjusted to match the header presence and any data if pre- sent. sum <number> manually specifies the checksum for the UDP pseudo- header and data. If left unset, it defaults to 0 and is automatically calculated. data indicates that a data section is to follow and is to be included as raw data, being appended to the header.
ICMP
type <icmptype> sets the ICMP type according the to the icmptype tag. This may either be a number or one of the recognised tags (see the ICMP TYPES section for a list of names recognised). code <icmpcode> sets the ICMP code. data indicates that a data section is to follow and is to be included as raw data, being appended to the header.
DATA
Each of the following extend the packet in a different way. Len just increases the length (without adding any content), value uses a string and file a file. len <number> extend the length of the packet by number bytes 6 IPSEND(5) IPSEND(5) (without filling those bytes with any particular data). value <string> indicates that the string provided should be added to the current packet as data. A string may be a consecutive list of characters and numbers (with no white spaces) or bounded by "'s (may not contain them, even if \'d). The \ charcater is recognised with the appropriate C escaped values, including octal numbers. file <filename> reads data in from the specified file and appends it to the current packet. If the new total length would exceed 64k, an error will be reported.
ICMP TYPES
echorep Echo Reply. unreach [ unreachable-code ] Generic Unreachable error. This is used to indi- cate that an error has occurred whilst trying to send the packet across the network and that the destination cannot be reached. The unreachable code names are: net-unr network unreachable, host- unr host unreachable, proto-unr protocol unreach- able, port-unr port unreachable, needfrag, srcfail source route failed, net-unk network unknown, host- unk host unknown, isolate, net-prohib administra- tively prohibited contact with network, host-prohib administratively prohibited contact with host, net- tos network unreachable with given TOS, host-tos host unreachable with given TOS, filter-prohib packet prohibited by packet filter, host-preced, cutoff-preced. squench Source Quence. redir [ redirect-code ] Redirect (routing). This is used to indicate that the route being chosen for forwarding the packet is suboptimal and that the sender of the packet should be routing packets via another route. The redirect code names are: net-redir redirect packets for a network, host-redir redirect packets for a host, tos-net-redir redirect packets for a network with a given TOS, tos-host-redir redirect packets for a host with a given TOS. echo Echo. 7 IPSEND(5) IPSEND(5) routerad Router Advertisment. routersol Router solicitation. timex [ timexceed-code ] Time Exceeded. This is used to indicate that the packet failed to reach the destination because it was in transit too long (i.e. ttl reached 0). The valid code names are: intrans, reass could not reassemble packet from fragments within a given time. paramprob [ paramprob-code ] Parameter problem. There is only one available parameter problem code name: optabsent. timest Time stamp request. timestrep [ { timestamp-code } ] Time stamp reply. In a timestamp reply, it is pos- sible to supply the following values: rtime, otime, ttime. inforeq Information request. inforep Information reply. maskreq Address mask request. maskrep Address mask reply.
