.SH DESCRIPTION
.B ip6_fmt
reads the
.I char[16]
IPv6 address and returns a compactified hexadecimal IPv6 address string
.IR fe80::fefe .
.B ip6_fmt_flat
reads the
.I char[16]
IPv6 address and returns all hexadecimal IPv6 address labels as string
.IR fe80:0000:....:fefe .
.B ip6_scan
reads a compactified IPv6 address string
.I fe80::fefe
and converts it to the
.I char[16]
IPv6 address.
.B ip6_scan_flat
reads an uncompressed IPv6 address als hexadecimal string
and returns it's
.I char[16]
IPv6 address.
.B ip6_scanbracket
reads a compactified IPv6 address string enclosed in brackets
.I [fe80::fefe]
removes the brackets and calls
.B ip6_scan
on the result.
.B ip6_ifscan
reads the compactified IPv6 address string appended with the
interface_name
.I fe80::fefe%eth0
returns
.I ifname
and calls
.B ip6_scan
for the (stripped) IPv6 address.
.B ip6_cidr
reads the compactified CIDR IPv6 address string
.I fe80::fefe/64
determines the prefix as integer
.I plen
and calls
.BR ip6_scan .
If no prefix is identfied, it returns 128.
.B ip6_bytestring
reads the IPv6 address given as
.I char[16]
while returning a 0-terminated 'bytestring' representation
.I 1001001....
up to the given prefix length
.IR plen .
The macro
.B ipv6_v4mapped
reads the IPv6 addresses given as
.I char[16]
and returns
.I 0
in case the given IPv6 address is not
a IPv4 mapped address.
.SH "RETURN CODES"
The
.B ip(6)*
programs return the number of bytes processed.
.B ip6_bytestring
returns negative numbers on failure.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
ip4(3),
socket_if(3)
