Hi,

Following the lecture “Using Scapy To Create an ARP Request”, when I run the program I get this return:

ARP who has ?? says ??

code:

“””
#!/usr/bin/env python

import scapy.all as scapy

def scan(ip):
arp_request = scapy.ARP(pdst=ip)
print(arp_request.summary())

scan(“10.0.2.1/24”)
“””

I tried:
1. the alternative function code:
def scan(ip):
arp_request = scapy.ARP()
arp_request.pdst=ip
print(arp_request.summary())

2. reinstalling scapy

3. Installing the COMPLETE version of scapy
$ pip install –pre scapy[complete] -> didn’t work, but the pip3 method did:
pip3 install –pre scapy[complete]

4. running the program with python3
(python3 network_scanner.py
instead of
python network_scanner.py)

5. I thought maybe python can’t print it out because the return is not a string, so, out of despair, I tried “””print(str(arp_request.summary()))””” – but that didn’t help either.

Nothing helped, still getting the same result. (“ARP who has ?? says ??”)
Any further suggestions would be highly appreciated 🙂
