Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Packet	deserialize(byte[] data, int bitOffset, int size) This method deserializes the data bits obtained from the wire into the respective header and payload which are of type Packet
boolean	equals(Object obj)
int	getfieldnumBits(String fieldName) This method fetches the number of bits for header field specified by 'fieldname'.
int	getfieldOffset(String fieldName) This method fetches the start bit offset for header field specified by 'fieldname'.
int	getHeaderSize() Gets the header length in bits
Packet	getParent()
Packet	getPayload()
byte[]	getRawPayload() Returns the raw payload carried by this packet in case payload was not parsed.
int	hashCode()
boolean	isCorrupted() Return whether the deserialized packet is to be considered corrupted.
protected void	postDeserializeCustomOperation(byte[] data, int startBitOffset) This method re-computes the checksum of the bits received on the wire and validates it with the checksum in the bits received Since the computation of checksum varies based on the protocol, this method is overridden.
protected void	postSerializeCustomOperation(byte[] myBytes) This method gets called at the end of the serialization process It is intended for the child packets to insert some custom data into the output byte stream which cannot be done or cannot be done efficiently during the normal Packet.serialize() path.
byte[]	serialize() This method serializes the header and payload from the respective packet class, into a single stream of bytes to be sent on the wire
void	setHeaderField(String headerField, byte[] readValue)
void	setParent(Packet parent)
void	setPayload(Packet payload)
void	setRawPayload(byte[] payload) Set a raw payload in the packet class
String	toString()

Method Detail

getParent

public Packet getParent()

getPayload

public Packet getPayload()

setParent

public void setParent(Packet parent)

setPayload

public void setPayload(Packet payload)

setHeaderField

public void setHeaderField(String headerField,
                  byte[] readValue)

deserialize

public Packet deserialize(byte[] data,
                 int bitOffset,
                 int size)
                   throws PacketException

This method deserializes the data bits obtained from the wire into the respective header and payload which are of type Packet

Parameters:

byte[] - data - data from wire to deserialize

int - bitOffset bit position where packet header starts in data array

int - size of packet in bits

Returns:

Packet

Throws:

PacketException

serialize

public byte[] serialize()
                 throws PacketException

This method serializes the header and payload from the respective packet class, into a single stream of bytes to be sent on the wire

Returns:

The byte array representing the serialized Packet

Throws:

PacketException

postSerializeCustomOperation

protected void postSerializeCustomOperation(byte[] myBytes)
                                     throws PacketException

This method gets called at the end of the serialization process It is intended for the child packets to insert some custom data into the output byte stream which cannot be done or cannot be done efficiently during the normal Packet.serialize() path. An example is the checksum computation for IPv4

Parameters:

byte[] - - serialized bytes

Throws:

PacketException

postDeserializeCustomOperation

protected void postDeserializeCustomOperation(byte[] data,
                                  int startBitOffset)
                                       throws PacketException

This method re-computes the checksum of the bits received on the wire and validates it with the checksum in the bits received Since the computation of checksum varies based on the protocol, this method is overridden. Currently only IPv4 and ICMP do checksum computation and validation. TCP and UDP need to implement these if required.

Parameters:

byte[] - data The byte stream representing the Ethernet frame

int - startBitOffset The bit offset from where the byte array corresponding to this Packet starts in the frame

Throws:

PacketException

getHeaderSize

public int getHeaderSize()

Gets the header length in bits

Returns:

int the header length in bits

getfieldOffset

public int getfieldOffset(String fieldName)

This method fetches the start bit offset for header field specified by 'fieldname'. The offset is present in the hdrFieldCoordMap of the respective packet class

Parameters:

String - fieldName

Returns:

Integer - startOffset of the requested field

getfieldnumBits

public int getfieldnumBits(String fieldName)

This method fetches the number of bits for header field specified by 'fieldname'. The numBits are present in the hdrFieldCoordMap of the respective packet class

Parameters:

String - fieldName

Returns:

Integer - number of bits of the requested field

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

getRawPayload

public byte[] getRawPayload()

Returns the raw payload carried by this packet in case payload was not parsed. Caller can call this function in case the getPaylod() returns null.

Returns:

The raw payload if not parsable as an array of bytes, null otherwise

setRawPayload

public void setRawPayload(byte[] payload)

Set a raw payload in the packet class

Parameters:

payload - The raw payload as byte array

isCorrupted

public boolean isCorrupted()

Return whether the deserialized packet is to be considered corrupted. This is the case when the checksum computed after reconstructing the packet received from wire is not equal to the checksum read from the stream. For the Packet class which do not have a checksum field, this function will always return false.

Returns:

true if the deserialized packet's recomputed checksum is not equal to the packet carried checksum

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides:

equals in class Object
