      firstLayer => 'ETH',

This module implements a pcap file builder. You will be able to create frames, then write them in the pcap file format to a file.

The following are inherited attributes:
file
Name of the .pcap file to generate.
overwrite
Overwrites a .pcap file that already exists. Default to not.
append
Append new frames to an existing pcap file. Create it if does not exists yet.
firstLayer
Stores information about the first layer type. It is used to write .pcap file header information.
isRunning
Returns true if a call to start has been done, false otherwise or if a call to stop has been done.

new
new (hash)
Object constructor. You can pass attributes that will overwrite default ones. See SYNOPSIS for default values.
start
When you want to start writing frames to the file, call this method.
stop
When you want to stop writing frames to the file, call this method.
write ({ timestamp => $value, raw => $rawFrame })
Takes a hashref as a parameter. This hashref MUST have timestamp and raw keys, with values. The raw data will be stored to the .pcap file.
