IPv6InterfaceProperties Class
Provides information about network interfaces that support Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6).
Namespace: System.Net.NetworkInformation
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
The IPv6InterfaceProperties type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | IPv6InterfaceProperties | Initializes a new instance of the IPv6InterfaceProperties class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetScopeId | Gets the scope ID of the network interface associated with an Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address. |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
This class provides access to configuration and address information for network interfaces that support IPv6. You do not create instances of this class; they are returned by the GetIPv6Properties method.
For IPV4 properties, see GetIPv4Properties.
The following code example gets an IPInterfaceProperties object and displays its data.
public static void DisplayIPv6NetworkInterfaces() { NetworkInterface[] nics = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces(); IPGlobalProperties properties = IPGlobalProperties.GetIPGlobalProperties(); Console.WriteLine("IPv6 interface information for {0}.{1}", properties.HostName, properties.DomainName); int count = 0; foreach (NetworkInterface adapter in nics) { // Only display informatin for interfaces that support IPv6. if (adapter.Supports(NetworkInterfaceComponent.IPv6) == false) { continue; } count++; Console.WriteLine(); Console.WriteLine(adapter.Description); // Underline the description. Console.WriteLine(String.Empty.PadLeft(adapter.Description.Length,'=')); IPInterfaceProperties adapterProperties = adapter.GetIPProperties(); // Try to get the IPv6 interface properties. IPv6InterfaceProperties p = adapterProperties.GetIPv6Properties(); if (p == null) { Console.WriteLine("No IPv6 information is available for this interface."); Console.WriteLine(); continue; } // Display the IPv6 specific data. Console.WriteLine(" Index ............................. : {0}", p.Index); Console.WriteLine(" MTU ............................... : {0}", p.Mtu); } if (count == 0) { Console.WriteLine(" No IPv6 interfaces were found."); Console.WriteLine(); } }
