|---|---|
| java.net |
Provides the classes for implementing networking applications.
|
| java.nio.channels |
Defines channels, which represent connections to entities that are capable of
performing I/O operations, such as files and sockets; defines selectors, for
multiplexed, non-blocking I/O operations.
|
| Modifier and Type | Field and Description |
|---|---|
static SocketOption<NetworkInterface> |
StandardSocketOption.IP_MULTICAST_IF
The network interface for Internet Protocol (IP) multicast datagrams.
|
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
static NetworkInterface |
NetworkInterface.getByIndex(int index)
Get a network interface given its index.
|
static NetworkInterface |
NetworkInterface.getByInetAddress(InetAddress addr)
Convenience method to search for a network interface that
has the specified Internet Protocol (IP) address bound to
it.
|
static NetworkInterface |
NetworkInterface.getByName(String name)
Searches for the network interface with the specified name.
|
NetworkInterface |
MulticastSocket.getNetworkInterface()
Get the multicast network interface set.
|
NetworkInterface |
NetworkInterface.getParent()
Returns the parent NetworkInterface of this interface if this is
a subinterface, or
null if it is a physical
(non virtual) interface or has no parent. |
NetworkInterface |
Inet6Address.getScopedInterface()
Returns the scoped interface, if this instance was created with
with a scoped interface.
|
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
static Enumeration<NetworkInterface> |
NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces()
Returns all the interfaces on this machine.
|
Enumeration<NetworkInterface> |
NetworkInterface.getSubInterfaces()
Get an Enumeration with all the subinterfaces (also known as virtual
interfaces) attached to this network interface.
|
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
static Inet6Address |
Inet6Address.getByAddress(String host,
byte[] addr,
NetworkInterface nif)
Create an Inet6Address in the exact manner of
InetAddress.getByAddress(String,byte[])
except that the IPv6 scope_id is set to the value corresponding to the given interface
for the address type specified in addr. |
boolean |
InetAddress.isReachable(NetworkInterface netif,
int ttl,
int timeout)
Test whether that address is reachable.
|
void |
MulticastSocket.joinGroup(SocketAddress mcastaddr,
NetworkInterface netIf)
Joins the specified multicast group at the specified interface.
|
protected abstract void |
DatagramSocketImpl.joinGroup(SocketAddress mcastaddr,
NetworkInterface netIf)
Join the multicast group.
|
void |
MulticastSocket.leaveGroup(SocketAddress mcastaddr,
NetworkInterface netIf)
Leave a multicast group on a specified local interface.
|
protected abstract void |
DatagramSocketImpl.leaveGroup(SocketAddress mcastaddr,
NetworkInterface netIf)
Leave the multicast group.
|
void |
MulticastSocket.setNetworkInterface(NetworkInterface netIf)
Specify the network interface for outgoing multicast datagrams
sent on this socket.
|
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
abstract NetworkInterface |
MembershipKey.networkInterface()
Returns the network interface for which this membership key was created.
|
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
MembershipKey |
MulticastChannel.join(InetAddress group,
NetworkInterface interf)
Joins a multicast group to begin receiving all datagrams sent to the group,
returning a membership key.
|
MembershipKey |
MulticastChannel.join(InetAddress group,
NetworkInterface interf,
InetAddress source)
Joins a multicast group to begin receiving datagrams sent to the group
from a given source address.
