Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

Libnet is an API to help with the construction and handling of network packets. It provides a portable framework for low-level network packet writing and handling. Libnet includes packet creation at the IP layer and at the link layer as well as a host of supplementary and complementary functionality. Libnet is very useful for writing network tools and network test code. See the man page and sample test code for more detailed information.

Mapping provenance

Only source-backed identity signals create public cross-OS links. A reviewer can later approve or dispute an inferred relationship without rewriting native package history.
