Hello,

I must communicate from linux to old hardware
(this old hardware cannot be changed).

This hardware use specific ethernet frame header (not 802.3).
To send message I must change the address destination (MAC),
with another value, and I must force specific type field
in ethernet II frame.

I don't know how to solve this problem, I must
write an application in C or C++.

Sample code, link, book, advice... are welcome.

Thanks.
