    Constructors

    • Constructor for an IPv6 number.

      Parameters

      • ipValue: string | bigint

        value to construct an IPv6 from. The given value can either be numeric or string. If a string is given then it needs to be in hexadecatet string notation

      Returns IPv6

    Properties

    bitSize: number = 128

    The number of bits needed to represents the value of the IPv6 number

    hexadecatet: Hexadecatet[] = []

    An array of Hexadecatet's

    maximumBitSize: bigint = Validator.ONE_HUNDRED_AND_TWENTY_EIGHT_BIT_SIZE

    The maximum bit size (i.e. binary value) of the IPv6 number in BigInt

    separator: string = ":"

    The string character used to separate the individual hexadecatet when the IPv6 is rendered as strings

    type: IPNumType = IPNumType.IPv6

    The type of IP number. Value is one of the values of the IPNumType enum

    value: bigint

    The decimal value represented by the IPv6 number in BigInt

    Methods

    • Gets the numeric value of an IP number as BigInt

      Returns bigint

      bigInt the numeric value of an IP number.

    • Checks if an IP number has a value greater than the present value

      Returns boolean

      true, if there is a value greater than the present value. Returns false otherwise.

    • Checks if an IP number has a value lesser than the present value

      Returns boolean

      true, if there is a value lesser than the present value. Returns false otherwise.

    • Checks if the given IP number is greater than this current IP number

      Parameters

      Returns boolean

      true if the given IP number is greater than this current one. False otherwise.

    • Checks if the given IP number is greater than or equals to this current IP number

      Parameters

      Returns boolean

      {boolean} true if the given IP number is greater than or equals to this current one. False otherwise.

    • Checks if the given IP number is lesser than this current IP number

      Parameters

      Returns boolean

      true if the given IP number is less than this current one. False otherwise.

    • Checks if the given IP number is less than or equals to this current IP number

      Parameters

      Returns boolean

      true if the given IP number is less than or equals to this current one. False otherwise.

    • A string representation of the IPv6 number.

      Returns string

      The string representation of IPv6

    • A convenience method for creating an IPv6 by providing the decimal value of the IP number in BigInt

      Parameters

      • bigIntValue: bigint

        the decimal value of the IP number in BigInt

      Returns IPv6

      the IPv6 instance

    • A convenience method for creating an IPv6 from binary string

      Parameters

      • ipBinaryString: string

        the binary string representing the IPv6 number to be created

      Returns IPv6

      the IPv6 instance

    • A convenience method for creating an IPv4-Compatible IPv6 Address from an instance of IPv4

      Parameters

      • ipv4: IPv4

        to create an IPv4-Compatible IPv6 Address

      Returns IPv6

      the IPv4-Compatible IPv6 Address

    • A convenience method for creating an IPv4-Compatible IPv6 Address from a IPv4 represented in dot-decimal notation i.e. 127.0.0.1

      Parameters

      • ip4DotDecimalString: string

        string represented in a dot decimal string

      Returns IPv6

      the IPv4-Compatible IPv6 Address

    • Alias for IPv6.fromHexadecimalString

      Parameters

      • ipString: string

        the IP number in hexadecatet

      Returns IPv6

      the IPv6 instance
