# Enum std::net::IpAddr 1.7.0[−][src]

    pub enum IpAddr {
        V4(Ipv4Addr),
        V6(Ipv6Addr),
    }

An IP address, either IPv4 or IPv6.

This enum can contain either an `Ipv4Addr` or an `Ipv6Addr`, see their respective documentation for more details.

The size of an `IpAddr` instance may vary depending on the target operating system.

# Examples

    use std::net::{IpAddr, Ipv4Addr, Ipv6Addr};

    let localhost_v4 = IpAddr::V4(Ipv4Addr::new(127, 0, 0, 1));
    let localhost_v6 = IpAddr::V6(Ipv6Addr::new(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1));

    assert_eq!("127.0.0.1".parse(), Ok(localhost_v4));
    assert_eq!("::1".parse(), Ok(localhost_v6));

    assert_eq!(localhost_v4.is_ipv6(), false);
    assert_eq!(localhost_v4.is_ipv4(), true);Run

## Variants

`V4(Ipv4Addr)`

An IPv4 address.

`V6(Ipv6Addr)`

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g. `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
