 Scapy is one of the most powerful packet manipulation programs currently 
 available. One of its powerful features lies within its capability in 
 creating and decoding packets using numerous different types of 
 protocols. In addition, it also has the ability send and receive 
 packets, plus performing a number of useful penetration testing tasks, 
 such as, handling tasks like scanning, tracerouting, network discovery 
 and certain attacks. It serves duties like sending invalid frames, and 
 creating double encapsulated packets in order to perform VLAN hopping. 
 Perform Nmap-like scan much faster, inject 802.11 wireless frames, and 
 combine different types of custom manipulation techniques within a 
 single packet.
