Method Detail

formatPossibleIpv6Address

public static String formatPossibleIpv6Address(String address)

canonize

public static String canonize(String ipv6Address)
                       throws IllegalArgumentException

Convert IPv6 adress into RFC 5952 form. E.g. 2001:db8:0:1:0:0:0:1 -> 2001:db8:0:1::1

Method is null safe, and if IPv4 address or host name is passed to the method it is returned wihout any processing.

Method also supports IPv4 in IPv6 (e.g. 0:0:0:0:0:ffff:192.0.2.1 -> ::ffff:192.0.2.1), and zone ID (e.g. fe80:0:0:0:f0f0:c0c0:1919:1234%4 -> fe80::f0f0:c0c0:1919:1234%4).

Parameters:

ipv6Address - String representing valid IPv6 address.

Returns:

String representing IPv6 in canonical form.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if IPv6 format is unacceptable.

formatIPAddressForURI

public static String formatIPAddressForURI(InetAddress inet)

Formats input address. For IPV4 returns simply host address, for IPV6 formats address according to RFC5952 rules. It embeds IPV6 address in '[', ']'.

Parameters:

inet -

Returns:

formatAddress

public static String formatAddress(InetAddress inet)

Formats input address. For IPV4 returns simply host address, for IPV6 formats address according to RFC5952 rules. It does not embed IPV6 address in '[', ']', since those are part of IPV6 URI literal.

Parameters:

inet -

Returns:

formatAddress

public static String formatAddress(InetSocketAddress inet)

Converts socket address into string literal, which has form: 'address:port'. Example:

• 127.0.0.1:8080
• dns.name.com:8080
• [0fe:1::20]:8080
• [::1]:8080

Parameters:

inet -

Returns:

isBindingToMulticastAddressSupported

public static boolean isBindingToMulticastAddressSupported()

checkForMac

public static boolean checkForMac()
