It can easily handle most classical tasks like scanning, tracerouting, probing,unit tests, attacks or network discovery (it can replace hping, 85% of nmap,arpspoof, arp-sk, arping, tcpdump, wireshark, p0f, etc.). It alsoperforms very well at a lot of other specific tasks that most other tools can'thandle, like sending invalid frames, injecting your own 802.11 frames, combiningtechniques (VLAN hopping+ARP cache poisoning, VoIP decoding on WEP protectedchannel, ...), etc.


It is useful in a variety of use cases, one of which is to actually get some hands-on experience when you learn Computer Networks. Wouldn't it be great if, when learning about Ethernet, for example, you could create, send, sniff and parse Ethernet frames on your own? Scapy is the perfect tool for that.

In this post you got to know an awesome tool called Scapy. You saw how you can sniff, how to filter packets, and how to run a function on sniffed packets. You also learned how to create and send frames.


The idea is simple. Scapy mainly does two things: sending packets and receiving answers. You define a set of packets, it sends them, receives answers, matches requests with answers and returns a list of packet couples (request, answer) and a list of unmatched packets. This has the big advantage over tools like Nmap or hping that an answer is not reduced to open, closed, or filtered, but is the whole packet.


Third, even programs which only decode do not give you all the information they received. The vision of the network they give you is the one their author thought was sufficient. But it is not complete, and you have a bias. For instance, do you know a tool that reports the Ethernet padding?


Scapy enables the user to describe a packet or set of packets as layers that are stacked one upon another. Fields of each layer have useful default values that can be overloaded. Scapy does not oblige the user to use predetermined methods or templates. This alleviates the requirement of writing a new tool each time a different scenario is required. In C, it may take an average of 60 lines to describe a packet. With Scapy, the packets to be sent may be described in only a single line, with another line to print the result. 90% of network probing tools can be rewritten in 2 lines of Scapy.


Network discovery is blackbox testing. When probing a network, many stimuli are sent, while only a few of them are answered. If the right stimuli are chosen, the desired information may be obtained by the responses or the lack of responses. Unlike many tools, Scapy gives all the information, i.e. all the stimuli sent and all the responses received. Examination of this data will give the user the desired information. When the dataset is small, the user can just dig for it. In other cases, the interpretation of the data will depend on the point of view taken. Most tools choose the viewpoint and discard all the data not related to that point of view. Because Scapy gives the complete raw data, that data may be used many times allowing the viewpoint to evolve during analysis. For example, a TCP port scan may be probed and the data visualized as the result of the port scan. The data could then also be visualized with respect to the TTL of the response packet. A new probe need not be initiated to adjust the viewpoint of the data.


Scapy is a packet manipulation tool for computer networks,[3][4] originally written in Python by Philippe Biondi. It can forge or decode packets, send them on the wire, capture them, and match requests and replies. It can also handle tasks like scanning, tracerouting, probing, unit tests, attacks, and network discovery.


Scapy provides a Python interface into libpcap or native raw sockets, in a similar way to that in which Wireshark provides a view and capture GUI. It differs by supporting packet injection, custom packet formats and scripting. While it is a command-line only tool, it can still interface with a number of other programs to provide visualisation including Wireshark, GnuPlot for providing graphs, graphviz or VPython for interactive displaying, etc.






Scapy is a library supported by both Python2 and Python3. It is used for interacting with the packets on the network. It has several functionalities through which we can easily forge and manipulate the packet. Through scapy module we can create different network tools like ARP Spoofer, Network Scanner, packet dumpers etc. This module can be used to create more advanced tools related network security and ethical hacking.


Installation of scapy module:

As scapy module is not included in Python3 library by default, we have to add it into our Python library using pip. Execute this command in your Linux terminal to get the scapy module for Python3.


ARP(): This function defined in scapy module which allows us to create ARP packets (request or response). By default, if we are calling it, it will create an ARP request packet for us.


summary(): This method provide us the status of the packet that we have created. It does not provide the detailed information about the packet, it just gives us the basic idea like what is the type of packet, what is the destination of the packet etc.

For example if we want to create an ARP packet using ARP() method which is present in the scapy module and want to see the summary of the packet then we can do this by creating the object of ARP class.


ls() function: This method is present in the scapy class. By using this method, we can see what are the fields that we can set for a specific packet.

In our example we will create an ARP packet and the with the help of ls() function, we will see what are the available fields for this packet.


I have made a DHCP testing tool with python scapy module and menu in 'curses' (I know... probably there are 467 similar tools, but I still had a good time learning it). But hey, when I google for scapy code, very often i find some outdated python2 codes, which need some changes. So perhaps somebody, someday will find it useful.


Scapy is a powerful interactive packet manipulation tool, packetgenerator, network scanner, network discovery, packet sniffer, etc. Itcan for the moment replace hping, 85% of nmap, arpspoof, arp-sk, arping,tcpdump, tethereal, p0f, &mldr;.


In scapy you define a set of packets, then it sends them, receivesanswers, matches requests with answers and returns a list of packet couples(request, answer) and a list of unmatched packets. This has the big advantageover tools like nmap or hping that an answer is not reduced to(open/closed/filtered), but is the whole packet.


So to my main question, how to get/set frequency of a packet.I expected Scapy to have this option but it doesn't, and it shouldn't. The reason is that the frequency depends on what is set on the network adapter. So what I did was to set the frequency/channel of my WiFi adapter to a different one. My external WiFi adapter can work in various channels so I changed each and confirmed with the RadioTap header. There are a simple linux commands/tools that helped me check the supported channels of my WiFi interface, and switch to a particular channel.


Let's say we wanted to change the frequency to 5300 and save it. This would only require iterating over the packet list, change the frequency for every packet, and saving the result. In the scapy interpreter:


I am trying to send a previously recorded traffic (captured in pcap format) with scapy. Currently I am stuck at striping original Ether layer. The traffic was captured on another host and I basically need to change both IP and Ether layer src and dst. I managed to replace IP layer and recalculate checksums, but Ether layer gives me trouble.


Anyone has experience resending packets from capture file with applied changes to IP and Ether layer(src and dst)? Also, the capture is rather big couple of Gb, how about scapy performance with such amounts of traffic?


Well, with scapy I came up with the following (sorry for my Python). Hopefully it will help someone. There was a possible simpler scenario where all packets from pcap file are read into memory, but this could lead to problems with large capture files.


Scapy is a packet manipulation tool for computer networks written in Python. It runs natively on Linux (as well as Mac OS X), but the latest versions of scapy actually supports Windows out-of-the-box. So you can use nearly all of scapy's features on a Windows machine as well.


As mentioned in the official documentation, scapy enables you to build exactly the packets you actually want. You are free to put any value you want in any field you want of the packet you want and stack them like you want, the authors assume that you are an adult.


I have built a simple network discovery tool with scapy. However I ran into an issue. The tool will find the iPhone once and then if I try to scan the network again it wont be there although the iPhone is still online and watching some youtube video. It will find every other device on the network.


I have also built a simple tool which using arp gets the mac address of an ip. That does not seem to work either. I have tried doing that with multiple iPhones and it seems that it does not work with any of them.


I am reading a Python book and in it there is a script to use scapy, the Python tool/module, to scan a subnet for any hosts that are up and report back their IP and MAC addresses. This script is an enhancement on a previous one that was calling /usr/bin/arping. That previous script only allowed one IP address at a time and was platform dependent on the arping tool being available. Apparently, this script (that does not work for me) is platform independent!


A network is an essential part of any cyber infrastructure. There are various tools available for the networking part of pentesting and other security assessment tasks like Nmap, tcpdump, arpspoof, etc., but one tool which stands out of all is Scapy.


Scapy is a powerful interactive packet manipulation tool written in Python, and the best part is that it can also be utilized as a library in Python programs, which provides the pentester the ability to create his/her own tool based on the requirement. In this article we will discuss how we can use Scapy as an interactive tool as well as a library in our programs (Python). It allows us to sniff, create, send and slice packets for analysis.
