Module Cf_ip6_proto

module Cf_ip6_proto: sig .. end

The AF_INET6 address family (for use with TCP and UDP over IPv6).

module AF: Cf_socket.AF  with
    type tag = [ `AF_INET6 ] and
    type address = Cf_ip6_addr.opaque Cf_ip6_addr.t * int * int32

The address family module for IPv6 transports.

module TCP: Cf_socket.P  with
    module AF = AF and
    module ST = Cf_socket.SOCK_STREAM

The TCP (IPv6) socket protocol.

module UDP: Cf_socket.P  with
    module AF = AF and
    module ST = Cf_socket.SOCK_DGRAM

The UDP (IPv6) socket protocol.

type mreq = {

	`ipv6mr_multiaddr : Cf_ip4_addr.multicast Cf_ip4_addr.t;`
	`ipv6mr_interface : int;`

}

The multicast request type

The following socket options are available on sockets of AF_INET6 family.

val ipv6_unicast_hops : (int, [ `AF_INET6 ], 'a) Cf_socket.sockopt

Set the unicast hop count for the socket.

val ipv6_v6only : (bool, [ `AF_INET6 ], 'a) Cf_socket.sockopt

Set the unicast hop count for the socket.

val ipv6_join_group : (mreq, [ `AF_INET6 ], [ `SOCK_DGRAM ]) Cf_socket.sockopt

Add the socket to the membership of a multicast group.

val ipv6_leave_group : (mreq, [ `AF_INET6 ], [ `SOCK_DGRAM ]) Cf_socket.sockopt

Drop the socket from the membership of a multicast group.

val ipv6_multicast_if : (int, [ `AF_INET6 ], [ `SOCK_DGRAM ]) Cf_socket.sockopt

The primary network interface address for sending to multicast destinations.

val ipv6_multicast_hops : (int, [ `AF_INET6 ], [ `SOCK_DGRAM ]) Cf_socket.sockopt

The multicast hop count for the socket.

val ipv6_multicast_loop : (bool, [ `AF_INET6 ], [ `SOCK_DGRAM ]) Cf_socket.sockopt

Enable multicast loopback on the socket.
