Struct ipnet::Ipv6Net

pub struct Ipv6Net { /* fields omitted */ }

An IPv6 network address.

See IpNet for a type encompassing both IPv4 and IPv6 network addresses.

Textual representation

Ipv6Net provides a FromStr implementation. This is represented using the FromStr implementation for Ipv6Addr followed by a / character and the prefix length in decimal. See IETF RFC 4632 for the CIDR notation.

Examples

use std::net::Ipv6Addr;
use std::str::FromStr;
use ipnet::Ipv6Net;

let net_v6 = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00::/32").unwrap();
assert_eq!("fd00::".parse(), Ok(net_v6.network()));

Methods

impl Ipv6Net

fn new(ip: Ipv6Addr, prefix_len: u8) -> Ipv6Net

Creates a new IPv4 network address from an Ipv4Addr and prefix length.

Examples

let net = Ipv6Net::new(Ipv6Addr::from_str("fd00::").unwrap(), 24);

fn netmask(&self) -> Ipv6Addr

Returns the network mask.

Examples

let net = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00::/24").unwrap();
assert_eq!(net.netmask(), Ipv6Addr::from_str("ffff:ff00::").unwrap());

fn hostmask(&self) -> Ipv6Addr

Returns the host mask.

Examples

let net = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00::/24").unwrap();
assert_eq!(net.hostmask(), Ipv6Addr::from_str("::ff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff").unwrap());

fn network(&self) -> Ipv6Addr

Returns the network address. Truncates the provided Ipv6Addr to the prefix length.

Examples

let net = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00:1234:5678::/24").unwrap();
assert_eq!(net.network(), Ipv6Addr::from_str("fd00:1200::").unwrap());

fn broadcast(&self) -> Ipv6Addr

Returns the broadcast address. Returns the provided Ipv6Addr with all bits after the prefix length set.

• Technically there is no such thing as a broadcast address in in IPv6. Perhaps we should change the methods to first() and last() or start() and end().

Examples

let net = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00:1234:5678::/24").unwrap();
assert_eq!(net.broadcast(), Ipv6Addr::from_str("fd00:12ff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff").unwrap());

fn supernet(&self) -> Ipv6Net

Returns the Ipv6Net that contains this one.

Examples

let net = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00:ff00::/24").unwrap();
assert_eq!(net.supernet().network(), Ipv6Addr::from_str("fd00:fe00::").unwrap());

fn subnets(&self, new_prefix_len: u8) -> Vec<Ipv6Net>

Returns the subnets of this network at the given prefix length.

Examples

let net = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00::/16").unwrap();
assert_eq!(net.subnets(18), vec![
    Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00::/18").unwrap(),
    Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00:4000::/18").unwrap(),
    Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00:8000::/18").unwrap(),
    Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00:c000::/18").unwrap(),
]);

fn new_subnets(&self, new_prefix_len: u8) -> Ipv6NetIterator

Experimental -- returns an iterator over the subnets

fn hosts(&self) -> IpAddrIter<Ipv6Addr>

Return an Iterator over the host addresses in this network.

fn contains(&self, other: &Ipv6Net) -> bool

Returns true if this network contains the given network.

Examples

let net1 = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00::/16").unwrap();
let net2 = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00::/17").unwrap();
assert!(net1.contains(&net2));

fn sibling_of(&self, other: &Ipv6Net) -> bool

Returns true if this network and the given network are both in the same supernet.

Examples

let net1 = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00::/18").unwrap();
let net2 = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00:4000::/18").unwrap();
let net3 = Ipv6Net::from_str("fd00:8000::/18").unwrap();
assert!(net1.sibling_of(&net2));
assert!(!net2.sibling_of(&net3));
