Expand description

This type has been deprecated please use IpNumber instead.

IPv6 headers have a field called traffic_class which has nothing to do this enum. This unlucky coincedence got even the developer of this library confused enough to write that the next header number should be written into the traffic_class field instead of the next_header field.

To avoid such confusions in the future the enum has been renamed to IpNumber, which also closer to the name “Assigned Internet Protocol Numbers” used on iana.org .
