Python Scapy / operator, | pipes in types

Question

With scapy we can:

p = Ether() / IP()

What operation does // really do? Which object is returning? If I find p in the python interpreter, it returns this

<Ether  ... | IP ...>

What does '|' mean in this case?

I tried to change the dst IP field after creating p without completely recreating the object, but I was not able to do this because I do not know which object I am facing.

Thanks.
