Python Scapy Attribute error

Question

>>> ans, unans = srp([your

packet here], iface='wlan0')

ans.summary()

This gives me error : "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'summary' "

Your srp function returned a NoneType object that you stored in the ans variable. Trying to call the summary() or any other function on this NoneType object will return an AttributeError. The srp function probably have a documentation detailing how to use it. — MCO System

When no answer is received in time (timeout), None is returned by srp

You should be checking for a None result

Yes The "None Type" was because no answer was returned i.e. None. type(None)="None Type"
