All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparable<IPv6AddressRange>, Iterable<IPv6Address>

public final class IPv6Network
extends IPv6AddressRange

Immutable representation of an IPv6 network based on an address and a prefix length. An IPv6 network is also an IPv6 address range (but not all ranges are valid networks).

Constructor Detail

IPv6Network

public IPv6Network(IPv6Address address,
           IPv6NetworkMask networkMask)

Construct from address and network mask.

Parameters:

address - address

networkMask - network mask

IPv6Network

public IPv6Network(IPv6Address address,
           int prefixLength)

Construct from address and prefix length.

Parameters:

address - address

prefixLength - prefix length

IPv6Network

public IPv6Network(IPv6Address first,
           IPv6Address last)

Construct from first and last address. This will construct the smallest possible network ("longest prefix length") which contains both addresses.

Parameters:

first - first address

last - last address

Method Detail

fromString

public static IPv6Network fromString(String string)

Create an IPv6 network from its String representation. For example "1234:5678:abcd:0:0:0:0:0/64" or "2001::ff/128".

Parameters:

string - string representation

Returns:

IPv6 address

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class IPv6AddressRange

toLongString

public String toLongString()

Overrides:

toLongString in class IPv6AddressRange

Returns:

like toString but without using shorthand notations for addresses

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class IPv6AddressRange

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class IPv6AddressRange

getNetmask

public IPv6NetworkMask getNetmask()
