Detailed Description

IPvXNet class. Container for IPv4 and IPv6 networks.

Also see IPNet for available methods.

explicit  IPvXNet (int family)

IPvXNet

Constructor for a specified address family.

Creates a network address of specified family, and address value of INADDR_ANY or IN6ADDR_ANY (for IPv4 and IPv6 respectively).

Parameters:
familythe address family.

 IPvXNet (const BaseIPvXNet& n)

IPvXNet

Copy constructor for BaseIPvXNet subnet address

Parameters:
nthe subnet to copy from.

 IPvXNet (const IPvXNet& n)

IPvXNet

Copy constructor for IPvXNet subnet address

Parameters:
nthe subnet to copy from.

 IPvXNet (const IPv4Net& v4net)

IPvXNet

Copy constructor for IPv4Net subnet address

Parameters:
v4netthe subnet to copy from.

 IPvXNet (const IPv6Net& v6net)

IPvXNet

Copy constructor for IPv6Net subnet address

Parameters:
v6netthe subnet to copy from.

 IPvXNet (const char *cp)
throw (InvalidString)

IPvXNet

Constructor from a string.

Parameters:
from_cstringC-style string with slash separated address and prefix length. Examples: "12.34.56/24", "1234:5678/32::"

 IPvXNet (const IPvX& a, int preflen)

IPvXNet

Constructor from a given base address and a prefix length.

Parameters:
abase address for the subnet.
preflenlength of subnet mask.

inline bool  is_ipv4 ()

is_ipv4

[const]

Test if this subnet is IPv4 subnet.

Returns: true if the subnet is IPv4.

inline bool  is_ipv6 ()

is_ipv6

[const]

Test if this subnet is IPv6 subnet.

Returns: true if the subnet is IPv6.

inline IPv4Net  get_ipv4Net ()

get_ipv4Net

[const]

Get IPv4Net subnet.

Returns: IPv4Net subnet contained with IPvXNet structure.

inline IPv6Net  get_ipv6Net ()

get_ipv6Net

[const]

Get IPv6Net subnet.

Returns: IPv6Net subnet contained with IPvXNet structure.

inline void  get (IPv4Net& to_ipv4net)

get

[const]

Assign address value to an IPv4Net subnet.

Parameters:
to_ipv4netIPv4Net subnet to be assigned IPv4Net value contained within this subnet.

inline void  get (IPv6Net& to_ipv6net)

get

[const]

Assign address value to an IPv6Net subnet.

Parameters:
to_ipv6netIPv6Net subnet to be assigned IPv6Net value contained within this subnet.

inline int  af ()

af

[const]

Get the address family.

Returns: the address family of this subnet (AF_INET or AF_INET6).

inline IPvXNet  ip_multicast_base_prefix (int family)

ip_multicast_base_prefix

[static]

Get the multicast base subnet.

Note that this is a static function and can be used without a particular object. Example: size_t my_len = IPvXNet::ip_multicast_base_prefix(my_family);

Parameters:
familythe address family.

Returns: the multicast base prefix address for address family of family.

bool  is_multicast ()

is_multicast

[const]

Test if this subnet is a valid multicast prefix address.

Returns: true if this is a valid multicast prefix address.
