Member Function Documentation
   struct in6_addr ost::IPV6Cidr::getBroadcast (void) const [read]
       Compute the broadcast address associated with this cidr. Returns:
	   system binary coded network address.

   unsigned ost::IPV6Cidr::getMask (const char *cp) const [protected]
   struct in6_addr ost::IPV6Cidr::getNetmask (void) const [inline],  [read]
       Get network mask associated with this cidr. Returns:
	   system binary coded network mask.

   struct in6_addr ost::IPV6Cidr::getNetwork (void) const [inline],  [read]
       Get network address associated with this cidr. Returns:
	   system binary coded address.

   bool ost::IPV6Cidr::isMember (const struct sockaddr *saddr) const
       See if a socket address is a member of this cidr's network. Parameters:
	   saddr pointer to test.

       Returns:
	   true if member of cidr.

   bool ost::IPV6Cidr::isMember (const struct in6_addr &inaddr) const
       See if a low level address object is a member of this cidr's net. Parameters:
	   inaddr object to test.

       Returns:
	   true if member of cidr.

   bool ost::IPV6Cidr::operator== (const struct sockaddr *sa) const [inline]
   bool ost::IPV6Cidr::operator== (const struct in6_addr &a) const [inline]
   void ost::IPV6Cidr::set (const char *cidr)
       Set the cidr from a full or partial hostname, or from a host/bits specification. Parameters:
	   cidr string to use.
