Creating Addresses

init?(String)

Initializes an IPv6 address with a string.

init?(Data, NWInterface?)

Initializes an IPv6 address with data.

var asIPv4: IPv4Address?

Extracts the IPv4 address contained within the IPv6 address, if the IPv6 address is an IPv4-mapped or IPv4-compatible address.

Inspecting Address Properties

var rawValue: Data

The raw data of an IPv6 address.

let interface: NWInterface?

The IPv6 scoped interface associated with this address.

var multicastScope: IPv6Address.Scope?

The IPv6 multicast scope of the address.

enum IPv6Address.Scope

An IPv6 multicast scope.

var isAny: Bool

A Boolean indicating whether the address is the unspecified address (::).

var is6to4: Bool

A Boolean indicating whether the address is a 6to4 address.

var isIPv4Compatabile: Bool

A Boolean indicating whether the address is IPv4-compatible.

var isIPv4Mapped: Bool

A Boolean indicating whether the address is an IPv4-mapped address.

var isLinkLocal: Bool

A Boolean indicating whether this address is in a link-local range.

var isLoopback: Bool

A Boolean indicating whether this address is a loopback address for the local device.

var isMulticast: Bool

A Boolean indicating whether this address is a multicast address.

var debugDescription: String

The description of the IP address.

Setting Well-Known Addresses

static let any: IPv6Address

The unspecified address (::).

static let broadcast: IPv6Address

The unspecified broadcast address (::).

static let loopback: IPv6Address

The device's loopback address (::1).

static let nodeLocalNodes: IPv6Address

The multicast address for all local nodes (ff01::1).

static let linkLocalNodes: IPv6Address

The multicast address for all link-local nodes (ff02::1).

static let linkLocalRouters: IPv6Address

The multicast address for all link-local routers (ff02::2).

Comparing Addresses

static func == (IPv6Address, IPv6Address) -> Bool

static func != (IPv6Address, IPv6Address) -> Bool

Returns a Boolean value indicating whether two values are not equal.
