# This program can be used send L2-L7 protocol messages using the hex bytes
# of the packet, to test simple protocol scenarios. (e.g. generate simple
# nsh packets to test nsh match fields/actions)
#
# Currently, the script supports sending the packets starting from the
# Ethernet header. As a part of future enchancement, raw ip packet support
# can also be added, and that's why there is "-t"/"--type" option
