Private Types

module Proto: sig .. end

Internet protocols, as in /etc/protocols.

Addresses

inet_addr

Stdlib Unix module already have a type for IP addresses: Unix.inet_addr (actually a string). We use a private type nonetheless so that we can have a custom printer.

val inet_addr_print : 'a BatInnerIO.output -> Batteries.Unix.inet_addr -> unit

Printer (in the sense of Batteries) for inet_addrs

IP Addresses as Unix.inet_addr (ie. strings)

module Addr: sig .. end

CIDR Addresses

module Cidr: sig .. end

CIDR addresses are a concise way to write network addresses, with network IP then netmask length, like: 192.168.0.0/16.

IP packet

module Pdu: sig .. end

(Un)Packing an IP packet.

module TRX: sig .. end
