PACKET.INTERNET.IPV6ADDRpacket.internet.ipv6addr 1.PACKET.INTERNET.IPV6ADDR(1)NAMEpacket.internet.ipv6addr - IPv6Addr module
DESCRIPTION
Create an object to represent an IPv6 address. An IPv6 address is given
either by a series of hexadecimal numbers or using the ":" notation. It
provides a mechanism for comparing this object with a regular string.
It also takes care of '::' notation and leading zeroes.
CLASSES
class IPv6Addr(__builtin__.str)
IPv6Addr address object
Usage:
from packet.internet.ipv6addr import IPv6Addr
ip = IPv6Addr('fe80000000000000020c29fffe5409ef')
The following expressions are equivalent:
ip == 0xFE80000000000000020C29FFFE5409EF
ip == 0xfe80000000000000020c29fffe5409ef
ip == '0xFE80000000000000020C29FFFE5409EF'
ip == '0xfe80000000000000020c29fffe5409ef'
ip == 'FE80000000000000020C29FFFE5409EF'
ip == 'fe80000000000000020c29fffe5409ef'
ip == 'FE80:0000:0000:0000:020C:29FF:FE54:09EF'
ip == 'fe80:0000:0000:0000:020c:29ff:fe54:09ef'
ip == 'FE80::020C:29FF:FE54:09EF'
ip == 'fe80::020c:29ff:fe54:09ef'
ip == 'FE80::20C:29FF:FE54:9EF'
ip == 'fe80::20c:29ff:fe54:9ef'
Methods defined here:
---------------------
__eq__(self, other)
Compare two IPv6 addresses and return True if both are equal.
__ne__(self, other)
Compare two IPv6 addresses and return False if both are equal.
Static methods defined here:
----------------------------
__new__(cls, ip)
Create new instance by converting input int/string into a per‐
sistent representation of an IPv6 address.
