man Net::Write::Layer2 (3): object for a link layer (layer 2) descriptor

SYNOPSIS

use Net::Write::Layer2;
my $desc = Net::Write::Layer2->new(
dev => 'eth0',
);
$desc->open;
$desc->send('G'x666);
$desc->close;

This is the class for creating a layer 2 descriptor.

dev

The string specifying network interface to use.

Under Unix-like systems, this is in this format: \w+\d+ (example: eth0).

Under Windows systems, this is more complex; example: \Device\NPF_{0749A9BC-C665-4C55-A4A7-34AC2FBAB70F}

new: Object constructor. You MUST pass a valid dev attribute. There is no default value. Returns undef on error.
open: Open the interface. Returns undef on error.
send (scalar): Send raw data to the network.
close: Close the descriptor.

Writing junk to loopback interface on BSD systems will not work.
