Send/retrive RAW ethernet frames (ARP request) in objective-C on OSX

is it possible to send/retrive ARP frames in Objective-C ?

I want to check avaiability of several devices in the local network from the code by ARP requests.

I think that it is only way to do that because the ICMP may be diabled, and not all of the devices has bonjure instaled.

Solution

  • Go for it. Anything you can do in C, you can do in Objective-C.
