IPV6_ADDRESS_EX structure (ipexport.h)
The IPV6_ADDRESS_EX structure stores an IPv6 address.
Syntax
typedef struct _IPV6_ADDRESS_EX {
USHORT sin6_port;
ULONG sin6_flowinfo;
USHORT sin6_addr[8];
ULONG sin6_scope_id;
} IPV6_ADDRESS_EX, *PIPV6_ADDRESS_EX;
Members
sin6_port
The IPv6 port number in network byte order.
sin6_flowinfo
The IPv6 flowinfo value from the IPv6 header in network byte order.
sin6_addr[8]
The IPv6 address in network byte order.
sin6_scope_id
The IPv6 scope ID in network byte order.
Remarks
The IPV6_ADDRESS_EX structure is a member of the ICMPV6_ECHO_REPLY structure that is used by the Icmp6ParseReplies function.
The IPV6_ADDRESS_EX structure is defined in public header files included in the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK), but this structure is used by the Icmp6ParseReplies function on Windows XP and later.
In the Windows SDK, the
IPV6_ADDRESS_EX is structure defined when compiling an
application if the target platform is Windows XP and later
(NTDDI_VERSION >= NTDDI_XP,
_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0501, or
WINVER >= 0x0501). When compiling an application if the target
platform is not Windows XP and later, the
IPV6_ADDRESS_EX structure is undefined.
This structure is defined in the Ipexport.h header file which is automatically included in the Iphlpapi.h header file. The Ipexport.h header file should never be used directly.
