NAME
       Net::Write::Layer2 - object for a link layer (layer 2) descriptor

SYNOPSIS
	  use Net::Write::Layer2;

	  my $desc = Net::Write::Layer2->new(

	  );

	  $desc->open;
	  $desc->send('G'x666);
	  $desc->close;

DESCRIPTION
       This is the class for creating a layer 2 descriptor.

ATTRIBUTES
       dev The string specifying network interface to use.

	   Under Unix-like systems, this is in this format: w+d+ (example: eth0).

	   Under Windows systems, this is more complex; example: DeviceNPF_{0749A9BC-C665-4C55-A4A7-34AC2FBAB70F}

METHODS
       new Object constructor. You MUST pass a valid dev attribute. There is no default value.

       open
	   Open the interface.

       send (scalar)
	   Send raw data to the network.

       close
	   Close the descriptor.

CAVEATS
       Writing junk to loopback interface on BSD systems will not work.
