Examples

The following code example displays the anycast addresses for the network interfaces on the local computer.

Remarks

An anycast address identifies multiple computers. Packets sent to an anycast address are sent to one of the computers identified by the address. Anycast addressing is an IPv6 feature used to update router tables for a group of hosts.
