Scapy: How to check if ping using srp1 (using Layer 2) was successful

I use the scapy module to create packages and want to send them over layer 2 since this is much more performant as L3. My packages look like this:

resp = srp1(Ether()/IP(dst="192.168.0.11")/ICMP(), verbose=True)

'resp' is a list of the result/answer. resp[0] shows the entire content. But since i send ethers the result is in hex.

How can i check if the ping was successfull. Simply convert/decode it doesn't work because the type is:

<class 'scapy.layers.l2.Ether'>

Is there a function provided by scapy which does the job or at least shows the result human readable in order to validate it manually?

resp.summary()

Or

repr(resp)

Or

resp.show()

They are ordered by verbosity. Their output are all different

You should read scapy's doc over https://scapy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
