Fork of PyTap that supports Python 3.
Requirements
The ifconfig command line utility must be installed for pytap2 to operate.

$ sudo yum install net-toolsInstallation
You can install, upgrade, and uninstall pytap2 with these commands:
$ pip install pytap2
$ pip install --upgrade pytap2
$ pip uninstall pytap2Usage
Using as a context manager automatically brings up the device and closes it at the end of the with block.
from pytap2 import TapDevice
with TapDevice() as device:
device.ifconfig(mtu=1300)
device.write(b'0000')Or manually call up() and close().
from pytap2 import TapDevice
device = TapDevice()
device.up()
device.ifconfig(mtu=1300)
device.write(b'0000')
device.close()The fileno() method is defined, so that the device object can be passed directly to select().
