- class os_ken.lib.packet.vrrp.vrrp(version, type_, vrid, priority, count_ip, max_adver_int, checksum, ip_addresses, auth_type=None, auth_data=None)¶
The base class for VRRPv2 (RFC 3768) and VRRPv3 (RFC 5798) header encoder/decoder classes.
Unlike other os_ken.lib.packet.packet_base.PacketBase derived classes, This class should not be directly instantiated by user.
An instance has the following attributes at least. Most of them are same to the on-wire counterparts but in host byte order.
Attribute
Description
version
Version
type
Type
vrid
Virtual Rtr ID (VRID)
priority
Priority
count_ip
Count IPvX Addr. Calculated automatically when encoding.
max_adver_int
Maximum Advertisement Interval (Max Adver Int)
checksum
Checksum. Calculated automatically when encoding.
ip_addresses
IPvX Address(es). A python list of IP addresses.
auth_type
Authentication Type (only for VRRPv2)
auth_data
Authentication Data (only for VRRPv2)
- create_packet(primary_ip_address, vlan_id=None)¶
Prepare a VRRP packet.
Returns a newly created os_ken.lib.packet.packet.Packet object with appropriate protocol header objects added by add_protocol(). It's caller's responsibility to serialize(). The serialized packet would looks like the ones described in the following sections.
RFC 3768 5.1. VRRP Packet Format
RFC 5798 5.1. VRRP Packet Format
Argument
Description
primary_ip_address
Source IP address
vlan_id
VLAN ID. None for no VLAN.
- classmethod parser(buf)¶
Decode a protocol header.
This method is used only when decoding a packet.
Decode a protocol header at offset 0 in bytearray buf. Returns the following three objects.
An object to describe the decoded header.
A packet_base.PacketBase subclass appropriate for the rest of the packet. None when the rest of the packet should be considered as raw payload.
The rest of packet.
- serialize(payload, prev)¶
Encode a protocol header.
This method is used only when encoding a packet.
Encode a protocol header. Returns a bytearray which contains the header.
payload is the rest of the packet which will immediately follow this header.
prev is a packet_base.PacketBase subclass for the outer protocol header. prev is None if the current header is the outer-most. For example, prev is ipv4 or ipv6 for tcp.serialize.
- class os_ken.lib.packet.vrrp.vrrpv2(version, type_, vrid, priority, count_ip, max_adver_int, checksum, ip_addresses, auth_type=None, auth_data=None)¶
VRRPv2 (RFC 3768) header encoder/decoder class.
Unlike other os_ken.lib.packet.packet_base.PacketBase derived classes, create method should be used to instantiate an object of this class.
- static create(type_, vrid, priority, max_adver_int, ip_addresses)¶
Unlike other os_ken.lib.packet.packet_base.PacketBase derived classes, this method should be used to instantiate an object of this class.
This method's arguments are same as os_ken.lib.packet.vrrp.vrrp object's attributes of the same name. (except that type_ corresponds to type attribute.)
- classmethod parser(buf)¶
Decode a protocol header.
This method is used only when decoding a packet.
Decode a protocol header at offset 0 in bytearray buf. Returns the following three objects.
An object to describe the decoded header.
A packet_base.PacketBase subclass appropriate for the rest of the packet. None when the rest of the packet should be considered as raw payload.
The rest of packet.
- class os_ken.lib.packet.vrrp.vrrpv3(version, type_, vrid, priority, count_ip, max_adver_int, checksum, ip_addresses, auth_type=None, auth_data=None)¶
VRRPv3 (RFC 5798) header encoder/decoder class.
Unlike other os_ken.lib.packet.packet_base.PacketBase derived classes, create method should be used to instantiate an object of this class.
- static create(type_, vrid, priority, max_adver_int, ip_addresses)¶
Unlike other os_ken.lib.packet.packet_base.PacketBase derived classes, this method should be used to instantiate an object of this class.
This method's arguments are same as os_ken.lib.packet.vrrp.vrrp object's attributes of the same name. (except that type_ corresponds to type attribute.)
- classmethod parser(buf)¶
Decode a protocol header.
This method is used only when decoding a packet.
Decode a protocol header at offset 0 in bytearray buf. Returns the following three objects.
An object to describe the decoded header.
A packet_base.PacketBase subclass appropriate for the rest of the packet. None when the rest of the packet should be considered as raw payload.
The rest of packet.
