Detailed Description

IPv4 RAW Socket Protocol.
Socket Handle typedefs:
RawV4ClientSocketHandle (ProtocolClientSocketHandle)
Policy Interface:
ClientSocketHandle::read(), ClientSocketHandle::readfrom(), ClientSocketHandle::writeto(), ClientSocketHandle::bind(), ClientSocketHandle::local()
Address Type:
INet4SocketAddress
RawV4SocketProtocol provides an internet protocol raw socket based on IPv4 addressing. This socket will put data written to it onto the IPv4 layer: if you call writeto don't include the header! On the other hand `read` will return the packet data including the IP header. This behaviour is strange and differs from the behaviour of IPv6 RAW sockets and should be changed in the future.

This class is utilized as the protocol class of the ProtocolClientSocketHandle via the Socket Handle typedefs above.

Attention:
If socket handle with RawV4SocketProtocol is connected via INet4SocketAddress, the port number is interpreted as protocol number for IPv4 layer. Please refer manpage: "man 7 raw".
