Hello Sandia_man,

I recommend Stevens classic "Unix Network Programming: Volume 1, the sockets networking API" (3rd edition) that has a chapter about raw socket and datalink: chap 27 und 28 pp 735-816.

You may also study the source of programs link ping, traceroute etc. that use raw socket.

HTH,
Loïc

socket_getsockname  -  Queries	the local side of the given socket which may either result in host/port or in a Unix filesystem path, dependent on
its type

SYNOPSIS
bool socket_getsockname (resource $socket, string &$addr, [int &$port]) DESCRIPTION
Note socket_getsockname(3) should not be used with AF_UNIX sockets created with socket_connect(3). Only sockets created with socket_accept(3) or a primary server socket following a call to socket_bind(3) will return meaningful values. PARAMETERS
o $socket - A valid socket resource created with socket_create(3) or socket_accept(3). o $addr - If the given socket is of type AF_INET or AF_INET6, socket_getsockname(3) will return the local IP address in appropriate nota- tion (e.g. 127.0.0.1 or fe80::1) in the $address parameter and, if the optional $port parameter is present, also the associated port. If the given socket is of type AF_UNIX, socket_getsockname(3) will return the Unix filesystem path (e.g. /var/run/dae- mon.sock) in the $address parameter. o $port - If provided, this will hold the associated port. RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. socket_getsockname(3) may also return FALSE if the socket type is not any of AF_INET, AF_INET6, or AF_UNIX, in which case the last socket error code is not updated. SEE ALSO
socket_getpeername(3), socket_last_error(3), socket_strerror(3). PHP Documentation Group SOCKET_GETSOCKNAME(3)
