Name

Inet6Address

Synopsis

Inet6Address implements methods defined by its superclass to make them specific to IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) internet addresses. See RFC 2373 for complete details about internet addresses of this type. Inet6Address does not have a constructor. Create instances with the static methods of InetAddress, which return instances of Inet4Address or Inet6Address as appropriate. In Java 5.0, you can also use the getByAddress( ) factory methods of this class directly.
