Port Address

MAC Address

A 48-bit Ethernet MAC address specified for a port. This address is used as the default source MAC field in the header of generated traffic for the port, and is also used for support of the ARP protocol.

Corresponding low-level API class: P_MACADDRESS

# MAC Address
await port.net_config.mac_address.set(mac_address=Hex("000000000000"))

resp = await port.net_config.mac_address.get()
resp.mac_address

IPv4 Address

An IPv4 network configuration specified for a port. The address is used as the default source address field in the IP header of generated traffic, and the configuration is also used for support of the ARP and PING protocols.

Corresponding low-level API class: P_IPADDRESS

# IPv4 Address
await port.net_config.ipv4.address.set(
    ipv4_address=ipaddress.IPv4Address("10.10.10.10"),
    subnet_mask=ipaddress.IPv4Address("255.255.255.0"),
    gateway=ipaddress.IPv4Address("10.10.1.1"),
    wild=ipaddress.IPv4Address("0.0.0.0"))

resp = await port.net_config.ipv4.address.get()
resp.ipv4_address
resp.gateway
resp.subnet_mask
resp.wild

ARP Reply

Whether the port replies to ARP requests. The port can reply to incoming ARP requests by mapping the IP address specified for the port to the MAC address specified for the port. ARP/NDP reply generation is independent of whether traffic and capture is on for the port.

Corresponding low-level API class: P_ARPREPLY

# ARP Reply
await port.net_config.ipv4.arp_reply.set(on_off=enums.OnOff.ON)
await port.net_config.ipv4.arp_reply.set(on_off=enums.OnOff.OFF)

resp = await port.net_config.ipv4.arp_reply.get()
resp.on_off

Ping Reply

Whether the port replies to IPv4/IPv6 PING. The port can reply to incoming IPv4/IPv6 PING requests to the IP address specified for the port. IPv4/IPv6 PING reply generation is independent of whether traffic and capture is on for the port.

Corresponding low-level API class: P_PINGREPLY

# Ping Reply
await port.net_config.ipv4.ping_reply.set(on_off=enums.OnOff.ON)
await port.net_config.ipv4.ping_reply.set(on_off=enums.OnOff.OFF)

resp = await port.net_config.ipv4.ping_reply.get()
resp.on_off

IPv6 Address

An IPv6 network configuration specified for a port. The address is used as the default source address field in the IP header of generated traffic, and the configuration is also used for support of the NDP and PINGv6 protocols.

Corresponding low-level API class: P_IPV6ADDRESS

# IPv6 Address
await port.net_config.ipv6.address.set(
    ipv6_address=ipaddress.IPv6Address("fc00::0002"),
    gateway=ipaddress.IPv6Address("fc00::0001"),
    subnet_prefix=7,
    wildcard_prefix=0
)

resp = await port.net_config.ipv6.address.get()
resp.ipv6_address
resp.gateway
resp.subnet_prefix
resp.wildcard_prefix

NDP Reply

Whether the port generates replies using the IPv6 Network Discovery Protocol. The port can reply to incoming NDP Neighbor Solicitations by mapping the IPv6 address specified for the port to the MAC address specified for the port. NDP reply generation is independent of whether traffic and capture is on for the port.

Corresponding low-level API class: P_ARPV6REPLY

# NDP Reply
await port.net_config.ipv6.arp_reply.set(on_off=enums.OnOff.ON)
await port.net_config.ipv6.arp_reply.set(on_off=enums.OnOff.OFF)

resp = await port.net_config.ipv6.arp_reply.get()
resp.on_off

IPv6 Ping Reply

Whether the port generates PINGv6 replies using the ICMP protocol received over IPv6. The port can reply to incoming PINGv6 requests to the IPv6 address specified for the port. PINGv6 reply generation is independent of whether traffic and capture is on for the port.

Corresponding low-level API class: P_PINGV6REPLY

# IPv6 Ping Reply
await port.net_config.ipv6.ping_reply.set(on_off=enums.OnOff.ON)
await port.net_config.ipv6.ping_reply.set(on_off=enums.OnOff.OFF)

resp = await port.net_config.ipv6.ping_reply.get()
resp.on_off

ARP Table

Port ARP table used to reply to incoming ARP requests.

Corresponding low-level API class: P_ARPRXTABLE

Port NDP table used to reply to incoming NDP Neighbor Solicitation.
