Field Detail

tentative

public static final Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus tentative

This IPv6 address is in the process of being verified as unique. Do not use addresses in this state for general communication. You can use them to determine the uniqueness of the address. See RFC 4293.

unknown

public static final Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus unknown

The status of this address cannot be determined. See RFC 4293.

inaccessible

public static final Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus inaccessible

This IPv6 address is inaccessible because the interface to which this address is assigned is not operational. See RFC 4293.

invalid

public static final Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus invalid

This IPv6 address is not a valid address. It should not appear as the destination or source address of a packet. See RFC 4293.

duplicate

public static final Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus duplicate

This IPv6 address is not unique on the link. Do use this IPv6 address. See RFC 4293.

preferred

public static final Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus preferred

This is a valid IPv6 address that can appear as the destination or source address of a packet. See RFC 4293.

deprecated

public static final Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus deprecated

This is a valid but deprecated IPv6 address. Do not use this IPv6 address as a source address in new communications, although packets addressed to such an address are processed as expected. See RFC 4293.

optimistic

public static final Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus optimistic

This IPv6 address is available for use, subject to restrictions, while its uniqueness on a link is being verified. See RFC 4293.

Method Detail

values

public static Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus[] values()

Retrieve all enumeration constants pre-defined by this enumeration class.

Additional instances might exist at runtime, for example to represent a new constant added to this enumeration class in subsequent version of the API. Such new constant is represented as instance of Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus but is not pre-defined.

Returns:

Array of all pre-defined enumeration constants. Never null.

valueOf

public static Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus valueOf(String name)

Returns the enumeration constant for the specified name.

If the name matches exactly the identifier used to declare an enumeration constant from this enumeration class, the constant in question will be returned.

Otherwise, a new instance of Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus will be returned for the specified name, which will not be one of the pre-defined constant instances. Such new instance maps to the Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus.Values._UNKNOWN enum constant from the native Java enum.

Parameters:

name - The name of the constant to return. Must not be null.

Returns:

Enumeration constant for the specified name. Never null.

isUnknown

public boolean isUnknown()

Checks if this enumeration constant is unknown. Unknown is a constant that is not one of the pre-defined ones for this enumeration class. Also see valueOf(java.lang.String) and values().

Returns:

true if this constant is unknown, and false otherwise.

getEnumValue

public Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus.Values getEnumValue()

Returns a native Java enum constant representing this enumeration constant. The result is useful for usual handling of Java enum, for example it can be used in switch statements.

If this enumeration constant is unknown, then Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus.Values._UNKNOWN enum constant is returned.

The native Java enum is Ipv6Types.IPv6AddressStatus.Values.

Returns:

The Java enum constant. Never null.
