Scapy is not working when IP is used as range in the ARP packet

[Parveshdhull]

Python Version: 3.8.1 & 2.7.17(Tried Both)

Scapy Version: 2.4.3

Where Working?

It is working fine with a single IP address.

Where Not Working?

When passing the IP range in the constructor, it never worked.

But when we assign IP range, it works sometimes.

Tried Methods?

Tried in the script, like

from scapy.all import ARP
arp_request = ARP()
arp_request.pdst = ip
print(arp_request.summary())

Tried in terminal using scapy, whose screenshot attached above

EDIT: I tried to analyze packets sent by the main device using Wireshark on one of the devices present in the network.

I find that in spite of showing range as ??, sometime ARP request covers whole range 0-256 and programs stop successfully. But sometimes it stops at 192.168.43.170 and keeps sending the request for 192.168.43.1. And this also blocks the internet.

I don't know why at 192.168.43.170 because my gateway is at 192.168.43.1 and devices are at 192.168.43.98 and 192.168.43.198

Wireshark Output

Did you retry against master ?
I'm pretty sure this was fixed in #2395

Thanks, @gpotter2

I tried master and range representation, in summary, shows right.
But the problem persists.
I created a broadcast arp packet and broadcasted it. First time it completed the whole subnet and return 2 results. But second time it again got stuck on 170.
And it kept sending requests and blocked network.
I stopped using KeyboardInterrupt, and it printed some errors, displayed in Image.

These all above screenshots are from arch linux, I tried in debian based os and it worked fine. I think there was something wrong with my system, not with scapy.
