The "Abstraction" project provides a comprehensive set of abstractions for network packet handling, protocol support, and address management. It simplifies the development of network tools by offering reusable components for transport and network layer operations.
Get Started
$ dotnet add package Oakrey.Network.AbstractionsReadme
Oakrey.Network.Abstractions
1. Overview
The "Abstraction" project is a .NET library that provides foundational abstractions for network-related operations. It includes interfaces, enums, and base classes for handling network packets, protocols, and addresses. The project is designed to facilitate the development of network tools and applications by abstracting low-level details.
2. Features
Packet Handling:
Classes like MacPacketHead, IPv4PacketHead, and IPv6PacketHead provide abstractions for parsing and handling network packets. PacketDescriptionBase serves as a base class for describing packets.
Protocol Support:
Enums like EtherType and IpProtocol define supported protocols (e.g., IPv4, IPv6, TCP, UDP).
Address Management:
Interfaces like IAddress and classes like IpAddressRange and IpAddressRangeViewModel handle IP address ranges and address-related operations.
Transport and Network Layers:
Classes like TransportLayerBase and NetworkLayerBase abstract transport and network layer functionalities.
Utility and Formatting:
Formatter provides utilities for formatting data. FlagsEnum and TimeValue offer additional support for flag-based enums and time-related operations.
Integration:
The project integrates with external libraries like PacketDotNet for packet manipulation.
