TCP/IP Network Interface Addressing
TCP/IP Network Interface Addressing
You can use the Resolver section to map system addresses to network addresses.
The TCP/IP network interface allows up to 16 IP address tags to be specified in a
single extended address.
The Resolver section recognizes the formats described in the following table.
See TCP/IP Example PIPE.INI Configuration File on page 9-12 for more examples.
Extended Address Processing
The IP portion of an extended address is processed according to specific rules.
An extended address may contain both IPv4 tags (ip:) and IPv6 tags (ipv6:). These
tags are evaluated by:
•
First collecting all addresses specified with the ipv6: tag, in order from left to right.
Table 9-1. Resolver Formats
IPv4
ip:*
ip:”*”
Uses the IPv4 address resolved through DNS and the
service port of the local NIF.
When ip:* is detected within an extended address, all other
IP addresses in that extended address are ignored.
ip:10.1.90.1
ip:”10.1.90.1”
Uses IPv4 address 10.1.90.1 and the service port of the
local NIF.
ip:10.1.90.1.2000
ip:”10.1.90.1.2000”
Uses IPv4 address 10.1.90.1 and service port 2000.
IPv6
IPv6:*
IPv6:”*”
Uses the IPv6 or IPv4 address resolved through DNS and
the service port of the local NIF.
When ipv6:* is detected within an extended address, all
other IP addresses in that extended address are ignored.
ipv6:”fe80::cafe:babe” Uses IPv6 address fe80::cafe:babe and the service port of
the local NIF. Note that double quotes are required for an
IPv6 address.
ipv6:”fe80::cafe:babe.2000” Uses IPv6 address fe80::cafe:babe and service port 2000.
Note that the service port is always expressed in decimal,
despite the standard hexidecimal notation of an IPv6
address.
ipv6:”::ffff:10.1.90.1” Uses IPv6 embedded IPv4-mapped address 10.1.90.1 and
the service port of the local NIF.
ipv6:”::ffff.10.1.90.1.2000” Uses IPv6 embedded IPv4-mapped address 10.1.90.1 and
service port 2000.
