Getting Variables From Scapy Using Python

Hi I need help trying to access elements in what seems to be a tuple that scapy is returning. The code is below. ans,unans=sr(IP(dst='www.google.com',ttl=5)/ICMP(),verbose=0) ans.s

Solution 1:

If you ever need the value of a layer use the getlayer method. So just change things to:

ans = sr1(IP(dst="www.google.com",ttl=5)/ICMP(),verbose=0)
address = ans.getlayer(IP).src

There is also another method to if a layer exists that returns true or false. Here is an example of that one.

if ans.haslayer(IP):
    print "Packet has the layer IP"
