How to install python-scapy centos?

Question

How can I install python-scapy on a centos server? yum install python-scapy does not seem to work. Do I have to download something or install a repo? Thanks

Solution 1

From the docs:

$ cd /tmp
$ wget --trust-server-names https://github.com/secdev/scapy/archive/master.zip
$ unzip master.zip
$ cd master
$ sudo python setup.py install

Alternatively, you can execute the zip file:

$ chmod +x scapy-latest.zip
$ sudo ./scapy-latest.zip

or:

$ sudo sh scapy-latest.zip

or:

$ mv scapy-latest.zip /usr/local/bin/scapy
$ sudo scapy

Solution 2

$ easy_install pip
$ pip install scapy

This usually works just fine for me. You might need a sudo in there depending on your setup.
