• So far as I'm aware access to raw sockets is not availables in any pure Java library.

  In part this is because on most O/S access to raw sockets is a privileged operation, only available to processes running as root / administrator.

  The Socket and DatagramSocket classes available in the java.net package are implicitly IP sockets (for TCP, and UDP, respectively).
