IPAddress Constructor (array<Byte[], Int64)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Initializes a new instance of the IPAddress class with an IPv6 address specified as a Byte array and the specified scope identifier.

Namespace:  System.Net
Assembly:  System.Net (in System.Net.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub New ( _
    address As Byte(), _
    scopeid As Long _
)

public IPAddress(
    byte[] address,
    long scopeid
)

Parameters

• address
  Type: array<System.Byte[]
  The byte array value of the IPv6 address.

• scopeid
  Type: System.Int64
  The long value of the scope identifier.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentException	The length of the address parameter is not 16 bytes required for an IPv6 address.
ArgumentNullException	The address parameter is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	The scopeid parameter is less than 0 or the scopeid is greater than 0x00000000FFFFFFFF.

Remarks

This constructor instantiates an IPv6 address. The scopeid identifies a network interface in the case of a link-local address. The scope is valid only for link-local and site-local addresses.

The Byte array is assumed to be in network byte order with the most significant byte first in index position 0.
